Sorry for this late answer... And sorry too for making you write useless
fontconfig files: according to the font guidelines:
   http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Choosing_the_right_font_format_to_package
   "Do not package new Type1 fonts. If someone cares about a Type1 font, he
should get it converted to OpenType CFF before we consider packaging it."
In other words, we should not install Type 1 fonts in /usr/share/fonts/ and
make them available outside the texmf tree. I really don't think converting
fonts to make them available to any application is worthy here, unless you get
in touch with their maintained to plan it. But it would take some time to fit
the fonts with OpenType features.
I'd suggest you to keep the package splitting, but to install the fonts in
their usual place, in /usr/share/texmf/fonts/, as well as remove all the
fontconfig stuff.
