Hi all,
Recently, I come across a bug[1] in the dependencies of LXDE desktop
group, one part of which turned out to be applicable to other desktop
environments too: Fedora desktop environments does not depend on any
fonts at all. So, if you does not have any fonts installed on your
system, and install one of such groups (e.g. gnome-desktop group) you'll
end up with a desktop environment without any fonts!
Now, as is being discussed in [1], which fonts should be pulled by a
desktop environment as its dependencies?
Thanks,
Hedayat

A DE should pull in the fonts group. That's the only font list proofed
by i18n for each release.

Thanks for the answer. I also thought that it is reasonable, but wanted
to make sure before calling others for it. I just wonder if it is
possible to have group dependencies in comps.xml or by packages! What is
the best way for enforcing such dependencies in Fedora?
Thanks,
Hedayat

Well that is a question for fedora-devel and the tools people :)
