IIRC pre-shipping these files caused other problems, but I doubt there is enough core fonts expertise left to identify them easily (I vaguely remember mkfontdir output was dependant on local hardware resolution or xorg version). The people who knew core fonts innards dropped it like radioactive material as soon as fontconfig was available. Whatever solution you choose forcing installation of core fonts backend by the main font package is a no-go for modern fonts (TTF/OTF, maybe Type 1 too). You can split the core font scriptlet parts in a subpackage, or ship pre-generated files, as long as you do not impact the vast majority of users who have no need for core fonts. -- Nicolas Mailhot _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-list
