Re: [Ankur-core] Re: Problem :: Localized Debian Installer

[Suzan]

Hi,
I'm developing a Bengali Linux Distribution Based on
Debian wth the Anaconda(Default Language Bengali )
installer. I was faced with this same problem in
Anaconda installer. I solved that problem by adding
some lines in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf of
fontconfig***.deb.

I added the following lines in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
of fontconfig****.deb
<!--
  Sans-serif faces
 -->
        <alias>
                <family>*******</family>
                <family>SolaimanLipi</family>
                <default><family>*******</family></default>
        </alias>
         
         ***************
         
        <match target="font">
                <test
name="family"><string>SolaimanLipi</string></test>
                <edit
name="hinting"><bool>false</bool></edit>
        </match>
        
        **************
        
        <alias>
                <family>sans-serif</family>
                <prefer>
                        <family>*******</family>
                        <family>SolaimanLipi</family>
                </prefer>
        </alias>
        
        ************

You can try this in Debian Installer. I think then
bengali will be Ok.
