IS -> HDU: I do not think that dependencies are a good solution. How about Mac
and Windows? And which dependency do we want to use for which Unix platform? The
opensymbol font is in one package with all other fonts. A missed dependency
leads to the situation that no font will be installed with OOo.
And as we discussed this morning, there is no necessity for such an inconvenient
and insufficient dependency. My favorite solution is, that the font gets a new
name. If the different versions of this font are not compatible because of big
changes in this font, it should get a new name. So we avoid any version
conflict. Your suggestion was, that you evaluate not only font name but also
font version. If you prefer this, then this seems also to be valid. Finally we
could also hard code, that this one font is always used from
share/fonts/truetype. This seems to be a very stable and simple solution.
So there are much better ways, then using dependencies between packages. This is
also not a valid solution for all our OS.
