Bug#233870: xserver-xfree86: default font config should include Defoma paths
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0-2
Severity: normal
It would be desirable for the FontPath lines to include these by default:
FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID"
This would result in the following default lines:
Section "Files"
FontPath "unix/:7100" # local font server
FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID"
# if the local font server has problems, we can fall back on these
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
EndSection
I ALMOST put this in as a wishlist item BUT, given how defoma is the standard font access method on Debian, there
really is no reason to force the user to add those lines manualy; they MUST be there by default.
