Thanks for the update. Is it possible to add fontconfig files? See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/FontsPolicy/ #_fontconfig https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/FontsPolicy/ #_fontconfig_3
For Malayalam fonts, we (Fedora) already have serif (RIT-Rachana) and sans-serif (RIT-MeeraNew) specified via appropriate font config. I wasn't sure (also with upstream maintainer hats on) whether these supplementary fonts require fontconfig. But I think, at least generic mapping to 'sans-serif' could be added. I'll add the fontconfig rules upstream and make a point release; then update this review request.
Some recently orphaned examples that maybe of interest to adopt: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/smc-anjalioldlipi-fonts https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/smc-dyuthi-fonts https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/smc-raghumalayalamsans-fonts https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/smc-suruma-fonts
I used to maintain these fonts; but they are obsolete.
