Bug#611969: ttf-opensymbol: Please hide OpenSymbol from the font selector



Package: ttf-opensymbol
Version: 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hi,

the OpenSymbol font shows up in writer's font selection combo-box, although
it's very unlikely this font is ever selected for writing actual text, since it
does not contain letters but only symbols. I'd prefer if this font was hidden
from the font selector altogether, because adding specific symbols is far
easier by using the "Insert -> Special character ..." menu or pasting the
symbol from gucharmap, instead of learning which key is mapped to which symbol
in this font.

The attached fontconfig file will hide the font from the font selector if
installed properly in /etc/fonts/conf.{d,avail}.

Best regards,
Fabian
