This will create 'share/fonts/misc/fonts.dir' in the 'pcf' output of font-gnu-unifont package. When multiple packages have this file, collisions occour and then I guess it won't work as expected. The right place to create this file is the 'fonts-dir-file' hook in profiles.scm, currently it does 'mkfontscale' and 'mkfontdir' only for truetype fonts under 'share/fonts/truetype', which can be extended for each directory under 'share/fonts'. What do you think?
