Description: LOO 5.4.4.2 -> LOO 6.0.0.3 - 64bits - Windows 10 As shown here: https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/144640/what-happened-to-open-sans/ it seems that LOO uninstaller removes the fonts bundled with LOO from the system. Indeed, I updated to the new LOO 6.0.0.3 from LOO 5.4.4.2. For that, I used the LOO 5.4.4.2 uninstaller and then use the LOO 6.0.0.3 installer. On LOO 6.0, the fonts 'Open Sans' and 'PT serif' has been removed from the LOO fonts bundle. So, at the end, the update process just silently removed my Open Sans and PT serif fonts from my operating system. Note that those fonts were fonts that I installed manually, they were existing on my system before any LOO installation. So, I am not arguing with the choice of removing Open Sans or PT serif from the LOO fonts bundle. Nevertheless, the point I really want to highlight here is that LibreOffice.org uninstaller (ie future LOO uninstallers) should not remove any fonts from the system without prompting. This is not a nice practice for the people who use those fonts with other software: suddenly, some fonts are gone and the users might not relate the root-cause with a LOO update or LOO uninstall process. I can understand that the LOO team would prefer an uninstaller that does not ask anything to the user. But in that case, the default behavior of the uninstaller should be to keep fonts on the system. Does this proposal sound reasonable? Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install LOO 5.4.4.2 2. Check that Open Sans and PT serif fonts are there 3. Uninstall LOO 5.4.4.2 4. Install LOO 6.0.0.3 5. Open sans and PT serif fonts are not present on the Windows OS anymore 6. This tends to show that LOO uninstaller removes fonts bundles with LOO Actual Results: LOO uninstaller removes fonts bundles with LOO. Expected Results: LOO uninstaller should not remove fonts bundles with LOO (this is a personal opinion) Reproducible: Didn't try User Profile Reset: No OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Version: 6.0.0.3 (x64) Build ID: 64a0f66915f38c6217de274f0aa8e15618924765 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; Locale: fr-CH (fr_CH); Calc: group User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0

Correction: bug 97892 is totally unrelated to this one. It's a typo: bug 97982 is closer to the issue described here. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 97982 ***
I can appreciate that "me too" comments aren't always helpful or appreciated but ... me too! I just got 5.4.3 > 5.4.4.2 upgrade on Ubuntu. Although many of my fonts haven't actually disappeared (they are still there, and can be accessed by other programmes), LibO Writer WILL NOT SEE THEM OR USE THEM. This is, frankly, bizarre behaviour. If I have a locally installed font on my system (which these are), why oh why would Writer not use them?! I have posted this on Ask.Libreoffice - https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/146222
