What is the advantage of this eclass over font.eclass we have in
/usr/portage/eclass?
We don't use chkfontpath for this purpose (it's package.masked).

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 13808 ***

Why chkfontpath masked?
How to add font path to /etc/X11/fs/config without chkfontpath?

we dont use it, it's that simple.

You can add fonts by hand if you want to, xfont handling is ancient & we don't support it.

This class haven't major advantage over  # 13808.
It suport many fonts formats.
May make wrappers for gnustep fonts.

Dut if you want, it's possible to merge this with your eclass.

I think, make somthing by hand isn't good idea.

stop this bugging... if you want to propose changes to an eclass, propose them
as such and dont push your own pretty over the top one. Fontpacks are way too
different to have an eclass that does it all. So create a new bug if you want
to see changes or look up the other bug & read trough it why it was done the
way it got done before you make all sorts of statements.

------- Comment #11 From Dmitry S. Kulyabov 2004-09-30 05:55:29 0000 ------- 
Sorry, but I don't understend, wthat to do????????
I was make some ebuilds for fonts, and it work.

------- Comment #12 From Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) 2004-10-01 12:24:58 0000 ------- 
Dmitry, please read comments and attachments in bug #13808.
We talked about several versions of font.eclass, including ones 
using chkfontpath (but we decided not to use them). 

If you have some idea to improve font handling with eclass,
please work on existing font.eclass and make a patch to it.

The current eclass does support several formats by FONT_SUFFIX,
so if you cannot make a font ebuild with existing eclasses then
post difsf to the eclasses and an ebuild using them.
