Description Michael 2015-06-07 05:17:45 UTC
It is arduous to right click on each font, open up KFontView and click "install font" when installing fonts, the other option is to do everything with idiosyncratic console commands  sudo fc-cache -f -v. 

Reproducible: Always

I can confirm this. But I seem to remember it being possible in KDE 4? So is this a regression in the move to KF 5?
Comment 2 Øystein Steffensen-Alværvik 2018-02-12 09:31:48 UTC
This is now a feature, it seems. However, there is a bug in the system-wide font installation that causes only two fonts to be installed at once, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349673
