Why would I need legacy Korean character set encoding support not included in or
required by the package?
Apparently this charset used to be supported by font-daewoo-misc, which has been
obsoleted by xorg-x11-fonts-misc, none of which support this legacy charset,
which may have been because of Fedora licensing concerns:
Alternatives are labelled UHC or CP949 and modern replacement appears to be
EUC-KR.

Anything we can do in fontconfig and/or require from some other package that
will alias the charset encoding and satisfy that requirement, or do we need a
new build or patched release that removes that requirement?
