Public bug reported:
GNOME Software can only search and install packages which are (probably) marked
as GUI applications.
In terms of usability, it is a good choice and the chances to mess up a system
are diminished.
As a result, it is not possible to install fonts.
Fonts should also be regarded as packages that can be searched for and
installed through GNOME Software.
Reproduce:
1. Start GNOME Software
2. Search for "font"
Expected result: several packages about fonts should be shown
What happened: no packages are found
