--- Comment #10 from Nicolas Mailhot <nicolas.mailhot at laposte.net> 2011-02-15 03:54:11 EST ---
Every package with  X core fonts support is a bit of a special case. If people
want to keep core fonts support in this package, it needs to be added manually
to the standard font packaging skeleton (as was done before) : use the
fontpackages macro, and add the core font bits manually (that's what liberation
does IIRC, though this package has always been a bit of a mess)

We definitely do not want to declare fonts as core fonts by default (this was
attempted in the early fontconfig days and broke left and right).
