Bug ID: 1375061
Summary: RFE: try switching to Liberation Fonts 2 again
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: liberation-fonts
Assignee: psatpute(a)redhat.com
Reporter: fedora(a)leemhuis.info
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,
i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,

Description of problem:
The freetype maintainer in
https://www.freetype.org/freetype2/docs/subpixel-hinting.html recommends "using
the Liberation family of fonts (version 2 and up, important!)" and criticises
Fedora because it still ships version 1.x. I think it's time to try switching
to v2 again. We tried that a few years ago
(
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Liberation_Fonts_2 ) and stopped it
then due to problems (see Bug 856239); but from above recommendation it sounds
like the problems we faced might be gone fixed in between.
