Description of problem:
Since I installed "VLGothic-proportional" and "Dejavu LGC Sans" fonts,
Japanese
characters have not been displayed correctly and displayed "□", called
"tofu"
characters, in Flash, gxine, and etc. I found out that this problem occur
because VLG's config file in /etc/fonts/conf.d compete against Dejavu's that.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
VLGothic-fonts-proportional-20071215-2.fc8
dejavu-lgc-fonts-2.19-1

How reproducible:
Always in particular situation.

Steps to Reproduce:
Use particular applications. Example, Flash(you may make it sure by "Rightclick
- Settings") and gxine.
  
Actual results:
Displayed tofus.

Expected results:
Readable Japanese characters with VLGothic fonts displayed.

Additional info:
We discussed about this problem in "Fedora Users Community Japan".  Following
is
the link to our discussion in BBS. We hope you find it informative:

And I made a RPM package which will resolve this problem.  I will attach it.
