Only fonts that used to have them should now do it like this.
Thats possible, but then the mkfontdir packages needs a post to run mkfontdir on all dirs under /etc/X11/fontpath.d upon install, as it may be installed later then some fonts, and core fonts using apps / libs need to require mkfontdir. So IMHO just carrying pre generated fonts.dir and fonts.scale files in the affected font packages is much better, but according to some this _may_ have issues, but no one knows what issues it seems and I cannot think of any issues.
And all font packages should be cleans of ghost font-cache.1 files, yes.
That I fully agree on. Regards, Hans -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
