FWIW it would be better looking back all of the fontconfig file available in
Fedora now for Fedora 13 and correct as needed to be sane.  Though
cjkuni-*-fonts provides a lot of the fontconfig files, I just wonder if all of
them are really accepted - who knows that? it may be a good idea if we have any
exception list of the fontconfig files for the packages. having any figures for
the relationship would be good too. that would makes easier to understand how
the fontconfig file affects when adding new one.
