Hi,
This package creates configuration file in 43 which does not follow
fontconfig rule and breaks expected behavior of fontconfig and prevents
other font package to be properly configured via normal way.
/etc/fonts/conf.d/README states:
20 through 29 font rendering options ****
60 through 69 generic aliases, map generic->family
Since it breaks other unrelated packages, this is critical bug.
critical
makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole system) break, or
causes serious data loss, or introduces a security hole on systems where
you install the package.
Since 60 is for latin and 65 is for nonlatin, and if you wish to ensure
this comes on the top of default nonlatin other font choices, it is
beast to put it to 64. (If Japanese want Japanese font over this, they
can use normal configuration file to override it with
~/.fonts.conf.d/*.conf . Now we can not even do this)
First you should not install 43-wqy-zenhei-sharp.conf 44-wqy-zenhei.conf
Then install attached 25-wqy-zenhei.conf 64-wqy-zenhei.conf
Since this is san-serif font, this should not be selected with high
priority for serif fonts. The omissions are intentional.
This is best implemented by changing debian/rules and dropping dpatch.
(Maybe with dpkg src 3.0 (quilt).
As for README.Debian, "Upstream has provided a zenity based scripts..."
but I see no zenity based scripts. I see simple shell script only.
If I get no response, I may prepare NMU. (I am not too comfortable
packaging this since upstream site is all in Chinese. I can only fix
the existing package.)
Regards,
Osamu
PS: examples/zenheiset needs to be updated.
PS: I understand bitmap fonts needs to be disabled.
PPS: ja, zh_CN, zh_TW preference conflicts over Unicode han unification
should be dealt a bit more nicely. That is something we need to discuss
with fontconfig.
