           Summary: conf.avail can be considered an FHS violation
           Product: fontconfig
           Version: 2.6
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: conf
        AssignedTo: keithp at keithp.com

As explained in
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2008-October/003030.html

conf.avail can be considered an FHS violation

Can it be moved somewhere in /usr/share?

We'd like to make font packages use the conf.d/conf.avail split in Fedora 11
but our package auditing tools do not like an /etc/fonts/conf.avail read-only
directory at all, strongly hinting the current default should be changed.

And if it has to be changed we'd rather it was changed before scores of
packages depend on the current default.

Fedora 11 packaging cycle will open soonish.
