Bug#588719: openoffice.org: metapackage should not depend on fonts - gentium is broken
Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1:3.2.1-4
Severity: normal
It seems like the metapackage should not depend on any ttf fonts.
Using Gentium Book Basic from ttf-sil-gentium-basic seems to
screw everything up. (See #587937) Is there a need for the menus
to use fonts that are not included with the desktop environment or
java packages? If not, then it seems like it ought to be up to the
user which fonts to install for their word processor. Thanks. --mark--
