SUMMARY
I am operating on Linux Mint 22 (Ubuntu based) and running the Flatpak installation of Krita. I keep running into a repeated issue with the text tool where it is unable to read my installed fonts. I know it is not an issue with the fonts because other programs like libreOffice (not Flatpak based) can read the fonts fine. When testing the Appimage installation of Krita, it also reads the fonts fine.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Krita through Flatpak
2. Open a new document and open the text tools
3. Click the dropdown to display the options for font selection

OBSERVED RESULT
The fonts that are displayed do not accurately represent the fonts installed on the device, omitting a large majority of them.

EXPECTED RESULT
All fonts installed on the device should be displayed in krita.
