[FORGED] Re: plotmath degree symbol

Hi

Thanks for that, but I still cannot confirm on ...

sudo docker run -v $(pwd):/home/work/ -w /home/work --rm -ti
rocker/r-ver:3.5.1

Could you please read the comments within the "Cairo Fonts" section of
the ?X11 help page, in case that offers some explanation.

Paul

I can confirm this problem.

Thanks, Paul -- setting the ~/.fonts.conf file the way ?X11 describes it
under the section you pointed to resolved the problem for me, on ubuntu.
