Yep, this looks nice
In merge review of bitmap-fonts, we are splitting it as per font family
we will get sufficient time to come at conclusion, which to keep default and
which optional

Right I suggest we make it optional in comps-f13 and see if anything "breaks".

The problem is, we have a lot of stuff installed by default in base-x because
something "may" use it (even though no one actually checked that was still the
case).

IMHO default packages in default groups should have a clear user, or be
downgraded to optional.

So I just wondered a couple of naive questions:

- does bitmap-fonts have to be installed by default?
- what actually needs it?
  


anything before X may still need bitmap fonts, don't they?

Sure: and xorg-x11-fonts also provides LT.

I am not asking if we should drop bitmap-fonts
(though it needs to be split up and repackaged)...
the question was why are we installing it by default
and when can we stop? :)

bitmap-fonts by default?

2009-09-28 Thread Jens Petersen
We have been looking at updating bitmap-fonts recently,
and noticed that it is still listed mandatory in the comps
@base-x group.

So I just wondered a couple of naive questions:

- does bitmap-fonts have to be installed by default?
- what actually needs it?
