If the old font package is unavoidable for this package, you must submit a review request for the old font package with enough rationale (like compat-foo library package) and make the font imported into Fedora in a proper way: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Font_package_lifecycle > Is there a _standard_ path to look for fonts? Fedora installs liberation-fonts > in /usr/share/fonts/liberation/ and Debian installs ttf-liberation in > /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-liberation/, namely. Is there a portable way to > look for a particular font location? I don't know well. I guess with some proper way generally knowing the location of fonts should not be needed (because one of the packages I maintain exactly do it), however I don't know the way (I guess functions in cairo or pango will do this) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
