Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: msttcorefonts
I think msttcorefonts installation pop-up, that appears during msttcorefonts
installation, is misleading because it informs the users that he has to install
and use x-ttcidfont-conf to use msttcorefonts under X (and then he has to read
the documentation in /usr/share/doc/x-ttcidfont-conf in which you can read that
you have to include two FontPath entries in /etc/X11/xorg.conf).
The fact is that it seems that the installer do almost all the work (and this
is great): in fact the fonts seem to be available just after the installation
is complete and x-ttcidfont-conf is already installed. The only thing the
installer doesn't do is adding FontPath entries into xorg.conf but it seems
unecessary to make fonts work.
I think the pop-up can be removed.
Tested with Hardy.
