Description of problem:
From Akira's font status page [1] it is observed that for language Malayalam,
serif-font is defaulted to Meera, while more appropriate font is Rachana (both
from smc-fonts package). Based on the discussion [2], it is agreed to
substitute Rachana as the preferred serif font in fontconfig file
65-nonlatin.conf

Bug ID: 1649858
Summary: using <ctrl><shift>u to enter unicode no longer works.
Product: Fedora
Version: 28
Component: ibus
Severity: high
Assignee: tfujiwar(a)redhat.com
Reporter: phorgan1(a)gmail.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,
shawn.p.huang(a)gmail.com, tfujiwar(a)redhat.com
Description of problem:
For years I've been able to type <ctrl><shift>u to enter unicode input mode and
type the hex value of a unicode character. Now it does nothing.
How reproducible:
While in an application that lets you enter text press <ctrl><shift>u226c
followed by a space
Actual results:
Nothing
Expected results:
Output of two notes
Additional info:
Please don't say use <ctrl><shift>e for the emoji chooser. It can not
substitute for the missing behavior. It's a chooser not an inline input method.
For some reason the emoji chooser HAS unicode but it's horrible! It's also
weird. Why is unicode in an emoji chooser? Who would want to use that? It takes
you off to a different window which disappears randomly behind the input screen
while you're trying to use it. Whoever created it seems to have no experience
with usability. I'm a software engineer with decades of experience and we had
to take classes in usability in college. Don't they teach that anymore?
I have to select unicode from a list and then search for the unicode character
I already know the code point for. It's pretty ghastly. Then when I find it and
select it the creepy window doesn't even go away!!! Whoever created it seems
really proud of it and just wants it to stay around.

Summary: Split and update smc-fonts to match upstream release
Product: Fedora

Description of problem:
We haven't updated smc-fonts in 4 years in Fedora. A lot of updates and fixes
were made and a new font was added by upstream in the meantime. With that, a
lot of discussions on how to manage the releases of fonts also took place,
because by then each font was being updated differently and was getting a
different version number.
Upstream moved to Gitlab instead of Savannah and each font with its own version
number is hosted in individual repository now, see
https://gitlab.com/smc/fonts. Fedora can no longer depend on the existing
packaging mechanism of single tarball and single makefile, as some fonts use
different build tools (e.g. Manjari uses UFO+Fontmake) as well.
I've discussed with pravins and he suggests to split the fonts and open a bug
for that.
