Bug#686098: Acknowledgement (After wheezy, please add symlinks to make the OTF variant available under /u/s/fonts and thus for fontconfig)



Hi again,

Alternatively, it should be possible to resolve the font name clash
(e.g. TeXGyreSchola vs. TeX Gyre Schola) in fontconfig, so that only
one consistent font name is presented in applications. Then we could
make both variants available for fontconfig - and applications (or
fontconfig itself) could choose whatever suits better.

the discrepancy is in the Opentype files. Fontlint even complains about it:

Norbert, could you iron this out with upstream?
