Re: Idea to add defaultfont(:lang=xx) rpm Provides to default font packages

Adding a defaultfont provide won't help because locale to font package is a one to many mapping. You would need to add a all operator to rpm requires to make things like
Requires: all(defaultfont(:lang=foo)) work

(this would probably be useful for other things, but I already spammed the rpm issue tracker with other RFEs, if you want it to happen fill your own).

And adding the provides to font packages does not change the fact that someone has to maintain those provides, that someone is Akira right now. When you have a single maintainer centralised lists like metapackage requires are easier to work from.

IMHO this is a broken setup and local Fedora groups should take responsibility for the default fonts to install in their locale but they never stepped up to the task
