| 0002-fontconfig-remove-generic-name-assignment-and-aliasi.patch | [PATCH 02/15] fontconfig: remove generic name assignment and aliasing This removes the generic name assignment and the generic name aliasing rules for the three standard DejaVu Sans, Sans-Mono and Serif fonts. These rules are redundant as they are already in the fontconfig upstream config files 45-latin.conf and 60-latin.conf, respectively, for at least 10 years now, c.f.: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/commit/conf.d/45-latin.conf?id=4b51f173c99152586db26b03752873a4b4020672 https://cgit.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/commit/conf.d/60-latin.conf?id=6c5619a08575943f75d2341e1a4931ec5faf716b We have a bug report in Debian from a user who complains that he changed the preference for the default sans-serif font in the expected rule, i.e. 60-latin.conf, and was confused when his change was overridden by fonts-dejavu's own rule in 57-dejavu-sans.conf: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=753401 The reporter confirms that removing the offending lines from the config files in the fonts-dejavu package causes the intended changes applied to the 60-latin.conf file to take effect. Thanks for considering! |
