Hello, I have problem with the font of my Pd. I have installed Pd 0.50.2 and the font it is using is Courier 10 instead of Deja Vu Sans Mono. So I get this: *WARNING: Font family 'DejaVuSansMono.ttf' not found, using default (Courier 10 Pitch)*
Not a big deal but I would like to understand why and how to have it right. I teach so I would like my students to see I use the same font as them ;) The funny thing is that I had this problem, I deleted all directories I could find about Pd, did: *sudo apt-get --purge remove puredata* *sudo apt-get autoremove* *sudo apt-get --purge remove puredata-core* (because with *dpkg list* and it was still there*)* Then I reinstalled this version of Pd, compiled from here http://msp.ucsd.edu/Software/pd-0.50-2.src.tar.gz
any reason why you don't use the Debian package of Pd-0.50-2? if you are using Debian/buster, there are backports [1] available.
and make sure to have the 'fonts-dejavu' package installed.
