polybar: Font not found

Hi, I have a problem with fonts with the example config file (and others that I tried).

$lemonbuddy_wrapper example -c ~/.config/lemonbuddy/config
Could not load font "sans:size=8"
lemonbar: invalid option -- 'o'
Could not load font "FontAwesome:size=10:weight=heavy"
lemonbar: invalid option -- 'o'

But I know I have font awesome installed

$fc-list | grep awesome
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/fontawesome-webfont.ttf: FontAwesome:style=Regular

Is there any more doc aboute the declaration onf the fonts in the config file? Or did I do something wrong?

Thanks.

Oh damn, I had /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf enabled… Now it works. Thanks!

@Rostgnom I recently fucked up with my fonts and had the same problem fc-list | grep siji and replaced it with the proper name font-2 = Wuncon Siji:pixelsize=12;0 hope it helps you

The icon font used in the example config is siji
