Description Amir Aharoni 2012-10-20 20:29:48 UTC 
Description of problem:

I installed Fedora 17 on my laptop. I tried to access the article "Cherokee language" in the English Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherokee_language ). It showed the name of the language in its own script as squares, because the font for that script is not installed by default.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 17.

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora with the Gnome desktop.
2. Use Firefox to go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Amire80/Fedora_fonts .
3. Check whether the line that says "Cherokee" has Cherokee letters. If it has squares or numbers, then the font is not installed.
  
Actual results:
The line shows squares.

Expected results:
The lines is supposed to show Cherokee letters.

Installing the GNU Free Fonts solved this. Is there any chance to have it installed by default?
