Doesn't work on Ubuntu 18.04

Followed the instructions but when I appl y the theme I get the error

A problem has occurred.

Details:
There is no default font

Hey, I believe a temporary workaround is adding the font file to the theme zip before installation with Aseprite.

I was thinking about restructuring this repo to a single zip install with all themes and fonts bundled together, I need to check the font licensing.

I'm having the same problem, is there a way to put some font to the folder and make it recognize it?

I have the same issue on Windows 10.

@erryox it works fine on Windows 10 for me. I don't think you have installed the font properly.

@TheLazyHatGuy of course I installed the font properly. I even tried to install it by drag and drop (in the new interface) as well as by a double click.
If I change the font name to say "RandomName" (in the theme.xml), Aseprite gives me "Font name 'RandomName' not found". But when the font name remains "RobotoMono-Bold", Aseprite gives me the error "There is no default font".

@erryox
I am using the Steam version on Windows 10 and had a similar error. I fixed it by adding the following to the fonts.xml file in the steamapps\common\Aseprite\data\fonts folder.
<font name="RobotoMono-Bold" type="truetype" file="RobotoMono-Bold.ttf" />

@DrMortim3r thanks, but it isn't working for me.
And now I did some research and found out what the problem. It seems like Windows 10 from some version started to install fonts to user's directories by default. Like ...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts\RobotoMono-Bold.ttf and Aseprite for some reason doesn't see them. I tried to specify the full path in the theme.xml, it hasn't worked.

Now you need to install fonts by right-clicking and selecting "Install for all users", it has worked for me.

So yes, we didn’t install the font properly but that worked before.

OK, I had the same error on Ubuntu 18.04 but I've found a solution.
When I have downloaded the font, I've dbl-click on it then I've hitted the "Install" button. BUT by doing that, the font was installed in /home/yazgaroth/.local/share/fonts/ . And even with #DrMortim3r's solution, that didn't work.

So, I've followed this article to manually install the font and now it's working ! Wouhou \o/

Note : don't forget to reload Aseprite (and Steam, just in case)
Note : that was bizarre, but the locate command didn't work to find the font. But here, I've found this fc-list | grep "<(partial) name of the font>" and that was very helpful

And thanks for the themes !
