Please include the other Arabic fonts at
http://www.arabeyes.org/project.php?proj=Khotot  (There is 2 other fonts
package in the same like)

Do I have to open another bug for the those fonts ?

Thank you

I opened a new bug (with ebuild) for the other font, here is the link
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36538

------- Comment #4 From Ahmad Twaijry 2003-12-26 10:37:40 0000 ------- 
BTW I have a question

When installing this ebuild does the user have to edit the file /etc/X11/fs/config
?

I hope if Stephen K. Benjamin can edit the ebuild to do that (most of users use XFS)

Thank you

I talked to Seemant Kulleen about this, he said they were actually working on
something to automatically configure the fonts, which is why it's been a while
and the ebuild hasn't been commited to portage.

I was considering writing a utility to configure the fonts, but I decided
against it.  Not everyone uses XFS (I do though).

------- Comment #6 From Stephen K. Benjamin 2004-01-03 17:04:45 0000 ------- 
There are only 3 font packages from ArabEyes, and only two of those are
truetype fonts.

The other one I have created en e-build for already:

Hi, sorry for the long delay.. We've included font.eclass to Portage.
The same comment #3 in bug #33145 applies to this one too. Please
add ebuild header, change LICENSE and rewrite the ebuild with 
font.eclass, and we will add it to CVS. (If you obtain the font
sources from sourceforge, you may want to use
SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/arabeys/..." rather than specifying one
of the mirrors)

------- Comment #8 From Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) 2004-10-01 11:05:05 0000 ------- 
bug #65849 contains an ebuild using font.eclass
