Package: xfonts-wqy
Version: 0.7.0-4-1
Severity: important

According to the TTF Package Installation provided by WQY. This font
file is a special type of TTF, called SFNT (or sbit only) TTF. It is
supported by FreeType 2.x or later. Unfortunately, ttfmkdir and
fc-cache can't recognize this format. We should not use those tools
to generate configuration files.(ttfmkdir failed to create fonts.dir,
fc-cache put wrong information into fonts.cache-1 and make fc-match
take more time to output a match). So we should use the hand-written
configurations files shipped with the upstream package. Otherwise the
package is useless.

PS: In my opinion, it's better to package BDF or PCF version. It is just
not the right time to do it with TTF version.
