Maybe it's an even better idea to make *only* the opentype variantavailable for fontconfig *instead* of the type1 variant.

Having them both registered in fontconfig and thus having to rememberthings like this does not sound like any added value:

And indeed with that no further installation is necessary, but
you have to select the right font!!!

	TeXGyreSchola   -> type1 version in .pfb
	TeX Gyre Schola -> otf version
