Thanks for the config file Akira (and sorry for replying so late to this bug
report).

>From the upstream description, sil-abyssinica is supposed to cover most of the
languages used in Ethiopia and Eritrea, which means the following locales:
aa_ER
aa_ER at saaho
aa_ER.utf8
aa_ER.utf8 at saaho
aa_ET
aa_ET.utf8
am_ET
am_ET.utf8
byn_ER
byn_ER.utf8
gez_ER
gez_ER at abegede
gez_ER.utf8
gez_ER.utf8 at abegede
gez_ET
gez_ET at abegede
gez_ET.utf8
gez_ET.utf8 at abegede
om_ET
om_ET.utf8
sid_ET
sid_ET.utf8
so_ET
so_ET.utf8
ti_ER
ti_ER.utf8
ti_ET
ti_ET.utf8
tig_ER
tig_ER.utf8

>From what I understand, Fontconfig locale-specific overrides are mainly useful
when several fonts cover the same unicode block, which is shared between
several scripts.

However, I'm not sure a lot of fonts cover the languages used in those two
countries, and it appears there is only one script in these unicode blocks, so
I'm not convinced of the need for locale-specific overrides in the config file.

Did I get everything wrong? ^^'
