dejavu-fonts and dejavu-fonts-experimental also occur in quite a few language groups, so they might be worth including too?
I'd rather wait till they get a farsi-friendly arabic variant now
that
Behdad added locl support to Pango (unless the pango support is
good
enough to ignore glyphs not specifically tagged for a locale)
Hm, ok - do we have suitable Farsi font currently in Fedora?
Yes. However we don't have a dual arabic/farsi font right now so you can't default install fonts for those languages (if the arabic variant gets higher fontconfig prio farsi users are pissed and vice versa). The problem is ara and farsi share the same unicode glyph range but they're not supposed to be drawn the same way
Presumably dejavu-fonts will eventually obsolete dejavu-lgc-fonts?
Hopefully dejavu will include both arabic glyph variants someday so we can install fonts with arabic glyphs without users objecting.
Sounds like a good idea. Fedora I18n could help with that specially for Asian fonts. Is there a good place on the wiki to put a reminder to do that during each release test cycle? In checklist under RelEng perhaps?
Debian maintains a font table in a wiki for its installer, maybe we can do the same
