It's even worse than that, a lot of stuff in there could be widely used,
but because the texlive maintainers do not install their fonts in
fontconfig space as required by our font packaging guidelines, most apps
do not even see some of the fine fonts included in TEX (in
general-purpose TTF or OTF format).

Also our guidelines would require splitting this package, which would
allow selection of the best fonts for the DVD, while dropping the rest,
and solving your problem.

If there are people on the list who understand TEX, please, invest the
time needed to clean up this package.
