           Summary: smc-fonts 4.4.1 causes Rachana and other fonts not
                    being recognized if Meera is removed
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 14
          Platform: All

            Status: NEW

    Classification: Fedora


Description of problem:
Since version 4.4.1, if both Meera(smc-meera-fonts) and
Rachana(smc-rachana-fonts) are installed, and then Meera is uninstalled,
Rachana is no longer recognized by fc-list, even after a "fc-cache -f".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.4.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install smc-{meera,rachana}-fonts
2. yum remove smc-meera-fonts
3. fc-list|grep -i rachana

Actual results:
"fc-list|grep -i rachana" returns nothing, so does "fc-list :lang=ml".

Expected results:
Rachana is recongnized.

Additional info:
Further, %{_fontdir}/smc/{Meera,Rachana} etc are not owned by any package. This
is caused during 4.4.1 upgrade, and which is causing the above issue. Even when
smc-meera-fonts is removed, %{_fontdir}/smc/Meera directory remains which
causes fc-cache not to update the cache. I'm not sure why "fc-cache -vf
/usr/share/fonts/smc/Rachana" says 1 font is added, but still not showing
Rachana in fc-list; though.
The fix is to make sure the subdirectories are owned by corresponding sub
packages.
