pasink and time icons not displaying correctly

Affected modules: pasink, time

Description: Ever since the upgrade to Ubuntu Bionic, these two specific icons have been appearing like they are in the screenshot below: https://i.imgur.com/GlkeO0p.png

I have tried resetting font cache and reinstalling the fonts (I am currently using Inconsolata).

Here’s my status command: ~/Documents/bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status -m nic bluetooth disk:home caffeine cpu memory battery spotify pasink date time -p interval=1 time.format="%H:%M:%S" date.format="%a, %b %d %Y" home.path=/home -t kairos

Ah, I didn’t document that. You need to specify a fallback font, such as Inconsolata, for Ionicon. The reason is that the space symbol I’m using is not part of Ionicon.

all spaces after icons would be drawn as ugly boxes @tobi-wan-kenobi

This happens on Sway, the wayland drop in replacement for i3wm. Maybe in future, we will have to tackle this issue.

Would’ve made a screenshot but scrot didn’t work on wayland ( maybe it’s X app only 😕 )

Closing for now, as using different icon sets is the best that can be done, I think.

If anyone knows a decent, free icon font that includes the space character (due to the mentioned Pango bug), I’d be very grateful if you let me know.
