We have been looking at updating bitmap-fonts recently,
and noticed that it is still listed mandatory in the comps
@base-x group.
So I just wondered a couple of naive questions:
- does bitmap-fonts have to be installed by default?
- what actually needs it?

anything before X may still need bitmap fonts, don't they?

The problem is, we have a lot of stuff installed by default in base-x because
something "may" use it (even though no one actually checked that was still the
case).
IMHO default packages in default groups should have a clear user, or be
downgraded to optional.

Right I suggest we make it optional in comps-f13 and see if anything
"breaks".
Yep, this looks nice
In merge review of bitmap-fonts, we are splitting it as per font family
we will get sufficient time to come at conclusion, which to keep default and
which optional
