https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529594 --- Comment #18 from Nicolas Mailhot <nicolas.mail...@laposte.net> 2009-10-20 07:40:41 EDT --- Try to make the tests for the prepend rule more fine-grained. Alternatively, if this is a behaviour needed for all CJK fonts, modify fontconfig and/or pango code to make this decision by default for all cjk fonts. But fontconfig kludges that assume CJK packagers know the right ordering for latin fonts are plain wrong, CJK people have been injecting variants on them in the system for years, they always caused no end of unintended side-effects, and never actually fixed CJK problems. As a case in point your patch does not even respect the current Fedora latin font priority order, and even if it did no one will notify you when it will change (as has happened several times in the past), so even if this patch was fixed now it will cause problems one day or another. And latin is the easy part, you also have cyrillic, greek, and all the other stuff needlessly duplicated in CJK fonts to take into account. A basic fontconfig sanity rule is to never try to change the ordering of fonts external to the package, because they are the responsibility of other maintainers, not yours. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list
