Per Branden, in https://lists.gnu.org/r/groff/2026-01/msg00100.html:
"To solve the eternally vexing third-party font support problem, we need to
provide scripts that packaging systems can integrate with their 'triggers',
reconfiguring groff's view of font availability as font packages get installed
and removed from the system."
