That's something I hadn't considered. > If some web applications needs a font it must create the symlink of that > font on that package First of all, regardless of whether or not the shared directory exists web applications are permitted by the draft guidelines to use symlinks or Apache's Alias directive to make web assets available in their namespace. This makes migration a lot easier in many cases. But we don't have to kill of the shared directory just to work around this. We can just whitelist fonts installed from the Fedora package collection and blacklist the rest unless the sysadmin specifically enables them. -T.C. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
