Summary: xorg-x11-fonts-ethiopic is not exposed correctly Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: low Priority: low Component: xorg-x11-fonts AssignedTo: xgl-maint@redhat.com ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com
Description of problem:
1. xorg-x11-fonts-ethiopic contains fonts in a modern TTF/OTF format. Those fonts need to be exposed in /usr/share/fonts and not /usr/share/X11/fonts for more apps to take advantage of them
2. the package contains two versions of the same font (in OTF and TTF format). This is likely to confuse apps so either drop one or make two separate conflicting packages so they're never installed at the same time on the same system. The OTF file appears to be the most complete one based on its size so I'd drop the TTF one (true all our apps do not support OTF fonts yet but they are becoming common enough apps should be fixed and TTf versions needn't be provided as workaround)
3. The package only contains the Goha-Tibeb Zemen font. It would be more user-friendly if it was renamed goha-tibeb-zemen-fonts
