Bug ID: 2431892
Summary: Provide a meta-package that prioritizes VFs
Product: Fedora

Hi there.
Currently, the "google-noto-fonts-all" meta-package installs many font
duplicates. Fedora seems to prever VF variants (
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/VariableNotoFonts ,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Noto_CJK_Variable_Fonts ), but the
meta-package installs both Static and VF variants of the same fonts. Example
from command "dnf repoquery --requires google-noto-fonts-all":
------------------------------------------------------
google-noto-serif-hebrew-fonts = 20250901-1.fc43
google-noto-serif-hebrew-fonts = 20251101-2.fc43
google-noto-serif-hebrew-vf-fonts = 20250901-1.fc43
google-noto-serif-hebrew-vf-fonts = 20251101-2.fc43
------------------------------------------------------
I would like to request the creation of a meta-package that prioritizes VF
variants and don't install their equivalent duplicates in Static variant.
For example, the meta-package would install Hebrew VF fonts, but not Hebrew
Static fonts.
This eliminates the duplicates, while still keeping the Static fonts in a
meta-package for the fonts that don't have VF variants.
Additional note: the current "google-noto-fonts-all" should probably install
the other "-all" meta-packages as well, since it includes all of their deps as
well.
Thanks.
Reproducible: Always
