i would like to create some ebuilds for some |
| 2 |
free font collections, but i am not sure what |
| 3 |
the standard is for ebuilds which install |
| 4 |
fonts. the ebuilds i have seen thus far |
| 5 |
which install fonts (freefonts and x11fonts-jmk) |
| 6 |
create new subdirectories of of /usr/lib/X11/fonts. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
this seems bad though, since it means that |
| 9 |
a new FontPath needs to be added to XF86Config |
| 10 |
every time new fonts are installed. why not |
| 11 |
just stick to the standard approach of adding |
| 12 |
fonts to the subdir of /usr/lib/X11/fonts which |
| 13 |
matches their type (Type1, truetype, etc.) and |
| 14 |
rebuilding the proper index files for fonts of |
| 15 |
that type? |
