Hi Behdad,

original source is from
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/smc/fonts/malayalam-fonts-04.1.zip
just edited it for testing
good to know it is working perfectly

where should i submit this patch
1) to fontconfig package? or
2) will it ok to copy it to /etc/conf.d through smc-fonts package?
IMO second one is not right

let me know so i can do remaining things for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448078

Thanks,
Pravin S
