Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

First, thanks for packaging the new KDE 4.0.

When installing the packages from  http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-
members-kde4/ubuntu on my Gutsy machine, I noticed that the font
installer was not included.  This may seem like a small thing, but the
font management features of the new installer in KDE 4 are something
I've really been looking forward to. I assume this application should be
in kdebase-workspace because that's where it shows up in the KDE svn.

When I asked Craig Drummond, who wrote the font installer, about whether
it would be included in KDE 4, he said it should be, and offered this
information:

"The font installer *requires* fontconfig and Xft development packages
to be installed when compiling. And I can only assume that who ever did
the Gutsy KDE4 packages (and the review above) did not have one of these
installed."

I hope that proves to be helpful, and thanks again for making this new
software available.
