1) vdr-skins already has dependencies to the symlink target providing
dejavu-fonts-lgc-sans and dejavu-fonts-lgc-sans-mono packages.  Did I miss
something?

Ideally I'd actually like to depend on the exact symlinked filenames (they have
moved at least 3 times during the last 18 or so months which is not fun at all)
but that would cause download of yum filelists which is very much frowned upon.
 So I'll keep the package name dependencies (and have a build time %check test
which unfortunately does not help after build), hoping that the font filenames
are no longer moved around.

2) Thanks for the info - in Aug 2007, dejavu-lgc had become more ubiquitous
than vera and full dejavu which is why I changed to it.  Will take a look at
switching to full dejavu.
