A package needs the truetype fonts luxi*.ttf. Because of the package
name change from XFree86-truetype-fonts to fonts-xorg-truetype
previously, I made the requirement be
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/luximbi.ttf etc. I also have a similar
dependency on the xhost program, solved in the same way.
There won't be any way to have a requirement on these fonts for all
three levels: XFree86, monolithic xorg, modular xorg, will there?
(The XFree86 based system I need to support is RHEL3, so this is maybe
"semi off topic".)
Hmm. This is an interesting problem. Any solution that I can
think of to this, has both advantages and disadvantages, however
I think the following solution has the least disadvantages, and
is simple to implement.
I can add a new virtual provide to modular X, and monolithic X,
which provides the luxi fonts. Of course the disadvantage of this,
is that the virtual provide wont pre-exist in any currently
released OS products, but it can be added in future erratum.
Provides: luxi-truetype-fonts
Provides: luxi-Type1-fonts
Does this sound reasonable?
The other alternative, is to conditionalize the spec file with
build_fc1 build_fc2 build_fc3 build_fc4 build_fc5 macros, but
that's kindof sucktacular.
I'm open to suggestions.
