Hi all,
While the current spec template in the Fonts SIG wiki
(http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Fonts/Packaging/SpecTemplate) only
documents common Fedora Fonts packaging practices, it's never been
formally approved.
I intend to submit it to FPC soon.
If anyone on the fonts list object to part of this page or wants
something clarified, please speak now
Regards,

Summary: Smaller fonts in X in F8T3 after login
Product: Fedora
Version: f8test3
Platform: x86_64
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: low
Priority: low
Component: xorg-x11-fonts
AssignedTo: xgl-maint(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: mcrha(a)redhat.com
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: caillon@redhat.com,fedora-fonts-list@redhat.com
Description of problem:
I noticed smaller fonts in F8T3 gnome with compare to F7. Even I saw some mails
about it on mailing list, then I think this is a bit different. I noticed that
right after login fonts are a bit bigger, for about 2-3 seconds, and then is
something loaded (I guess), which makes fonts significantly smaller. I can still
read it, but they are really smaller than on F7. It's smaller for all the gnome,
not only for menu or some particular parts of window.
Also, I noticed it on a message I described at bug #360851, which is there every
login for me. I can see after login this message with bigger fonts, and I didn't
do anything and they are suddenly smaller, after that 2-3 seconds.
I'm not sure how to describe it better, or how to investigate what causes this,
but if you can guide me, then I will try to help.

Description of problem: The lohit-fonts-* packages are composed onto install
media (and installed by default) even when the corresponding languages have been

Summary: why not dejavu-lgc-fonts 2.20. why redundancy

Version: devel
Platform: All

F8-devel, as it stands now, contains
dejavu-lgc-fonts-2.19
dejavu-fonts-2.20
They come from the same source, but the smaller package lags behind.
2.20 was cleaned up, so lgc would be even smaller. Is this a historically high
risk update?

I don't really understand

since it is common for Japanese fonts under Linux too.

Can freetype handle these types of non-unix encoding?
Or is it just following X locale?
Sangu, why do you wish to use xfontsel?
