Default font in Konsole

[Scott Beamer]

Greetings,

I've been meaning to address this for quite some time now.  I finally 
remembered today.

Every Linux distro I've ever used including Arch, Debian, KDE neon, 
openSUSE, and (K)ubuntu that has KDE Plasma in it's repos, includes the 
"Hack" font.  It's the default font in Konsole.

That's not the case in Fedora.  In Fedora the default font in Konsole is 
Noto Sans Mono.

Now Hack *is* in the Fedora repo [1], but it's not installed by default.

Is there any particular reason for this?  How can this be corrected?

TIA

Scott

Hack fonts were recently added to Fedora.  So it is now possible to make
it default font for Konsole, though changing Konsole font can also be
done directly to use another monospace font.
