Description Jens Petersen 2018-03-30 06:18:42 UTC

Description of problem:
F28 Beta Live images increased about 300MB in size due to
the large number of variants of the new Noto CJK font families.
Can we subpackage out the variants other than Regular to make
the default installs back to the same size as F27?

Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2018-03-30 06:29:45 UTC

Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-27-1.6.iso  1.5G
Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-28_Beta-1.3.iso  1.8G

Comment 2 Akira TAGOH 2018-03-30 07:47:27 UTC

proposed on the list to move extra variants into the sub-package.

estimation:
font sizes for CJK fonts installed by default on f27:
$ rpm -qlva vlgothic-fonts naver-nanum-gothic-fonts
adobe-source-han-*-{cn,tw}-fonts | grep -E 'ttf|otf'|awk
'BEGIN{a=0}{a+=$5}END{print a}'
235970044

font sizes for CJK on f28 so far:
$ rpm -qlva google-noto-*-{jp,kr,tc,sc}-fonts | awk
'BEGIN{a=0}{a+=$5}END{print a}'
508140498

Proposed workaround - font sizes for CJK fonts with Regular only on f28:
$ rpm -qlva google-noto-*-{jp,kr,tc,sc}-fonts | grep Regular | awk
'BEGIN{a=0}{a+=$5}END{print a}'
119507812

another - font sizes for CJK fonts with Regular and Bold only on f28:
$ rpm -qlva google-noto-*-{jp,kr,tc,sc}-fonts | grep -E
'Regular|\-Bold\.' | awk 'BEGIN{a=0}{a+=$5}END{print a}'

Comment 3 Akira TAGOH 2018-04-09 07:38:08 UTC

another proposal to replace with ttc:
$ rpm -qlva google-noto-*-cjk-ttc-fonts | grep ttc | awk 'BEGIN{a=0}{a+=$5}END{print a}'

No regressions will be made from the POV of typefaces availability but will saves about 210MB.

Comment 5 Jens Petersen 2019-04-09 06:02:16 UTC

Probably variable fonts will be a better solution when they become available.
