texlive and fedora fonts

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I wanted to point out that with new texlive in F18+
we have some duplication of fonts src packages: eg

ctan-cm-lgc-fonts and texlive-cm-lgc (subpackage) [1]

ctan-kerkis-fonts and texlive-kerkis (subpackage)

I have communicated with Jindrich about this over bugzilla
and for now I removed the tex subpackages from the ctan-*-fonts
packages and he obsoleted the old tex-* subpackages from
the texlive subpackages.

That is all well and good but it still seems wrong to be
duplicating fonts sources over different src packages.
Maybe texlive needs to start getting into the business of
also generating fedora fonts packages?  Or some other way
could be found to improve this.  Or do we just treat texlive
as an exception?
