Quoting Khaled Hosny (khaledhosny@eglug.org): > It does not make much sense and will be a compatibility nightmare; > people upgrading their fonts and suddenly all old documents using "Linux > Libertine" are broken (in cases of e.g. TeX it means not being able to > process the document at all), and no fontconfig aliases is not a > solution since not every system is using it. Renaming such widely used > font at this very late stage is very bad idea no matter how good the > reasons. I don't know how to say this in a different way: the point is not renaming the internal font name. It is only renaming the *package*. The thing people install with "apt-get install fonts-whatever". > > > A compromise (that doesn't have my preference) would be naming the > > package "fonts-linuxlibertine" making it clearer that "linux" is not a > > foundry name. > > That sounds like the best solution. Others? Comments?
