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
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-fonts-ethiopic-7.2-6.fc9

--- Comment #2 from Bug Zapper fedora-triage-list@redhat.com 2009-06-09 19:47:25 EDT ---
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.
Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

- The package only contains the Goha-Tibeb Zemen font. It would be more
user-friendly if it was renamed goha-tibeb-zemen-fonts
Or xorg-goha-tibeb-zemen-fonts if you want to keep the origin clear (recommended nowadays)
If you don't care about the X core fonts backend the current basic template is sufficient, otherwise you get to play with fonts.foo and symlinking the font dir in /etc/X11/fontpath.d/
