Description Akira TAGOH 2010-03-30 03:46:25 UTC

Description of problem:
All of detailed information is available on my post at the fonts list:
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fonts/2010-March/001117.html

binding="same" in the fontconfig config file prevents to apply the rule for the
specific
language only properly. As a result, fonts is used for non-targetted languages
and it may gives different look and feel in some cases.

I'd propose to get rid of binding="same" from:
 67-lohit-malayalam.conf

Comment 4 Akira TAGOH 2010-04-22 09:36:37 UTC

Please note that I've removed smc-meera-fonts for testing first since it has a priority than lohit-malayalam-fonts.

Testing result:
# rpm -q lohit-malayalam-fonts
lohit-malayalam-fonts-2.4.4-5.fc13.noarch
# fc-match monospace:lang=en
DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book"
# fc-match monospace:lang=en-us
DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book"
# fc-match monospace:lang=ml
Lohit-Malayalam.ttf: "Lohit Malayalam" "Regular"
# fc-match monospace:lang=ml-in
Lohit-Malayalam.ttf: "Lohit Malayalam" "Regular"
# fc-match serif:lang=en
DejaVuSerif.ttf: "DejaVu Serif" "Book"
# fc-match serif:lang=en-us
DejaVuSerif.ttf: "DejaVu Serif" "Book"
# fc-match serif:lang=ml
Lohit-Malayalam.ttf: "Lohit Malayalam" "Regular"
# fc-match serif:lang=ml-in
Lohit-Malayalam.ttf: "Lohit Malayalam" "Regular"

Though no rules for monospace nor serif in lohit-malayalam-fonts. may be good to have one for them?

# fc-match sans:lang=en
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
# fc-match sans:lang=en-us
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
# fc-match sans:lang=ml
Lohit-Malayalam.ttf: "Lohit Malayalam" "Regular"
# fc-match sans:lang=ml-in
Lohit-Malayalam.ttf: "Lohit Malayalam" "Regular"

That looks good.

# for i in $(ls /usr/share/locale|grep -v ml); do fc-match sans:lang=$i|grep "Lohit Malayalam"; [ $? = 0 ] && echo $i; done
#

Confirmed that the updated package works fine.
