Questions for all #emacs and #spacemacs people: why it do this (at the bottom, the powerline I think it's called)

@jordyd i think it's because of font issues? i just left it that way

@CobaltVelvet I won't sleep at night until this is fixed

@jordyd @CobaltVelvet you need to get some powerline patched fonts and use those. (Set them up in your .spacemacs, SPC f e d; under dotspacemacs-default-font)

@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz I installed some patched fonts to ~/.local/share/fonts, but I can't get emacs to use them. I tried "Source Code Pro", "Source Code Pro for Powerline", and "Source Code Pro Powerline", none of which fix it

@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet what distro are you using?

@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz Arch Linux, also I'm using GNOME

@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet I am not too sure about this but looks like there is a simple fix.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Powerline#Fonts

Just `sudo pacman -S powerline-fonts`

@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz I tried that too but it didn’t seem to work :/

@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet

Could you `M-x describe-font` in Spacemacs?

@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz

@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet it is fethcing the non-powerline patched font from /usr/share/fonts/

Maybe remove adobe-source-code-pro-fonts and keep the ones you got into ~/.local/share/fonts ?

@CobaltVelvet @arisunz @jordyd a second option could be installing https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nerd-fonts-complete/

and using that one?

@fabianhjr @arisunz @CobaltVelvet Hm....

@jordyd @CobaltVelvet @arisunz oh shit, still broken? :S

@fabianhjr @arisunz @CobaltVelvet Yeah idk anymore
