Description José Romildo Malaquias 2011-04-09 12:38:48 UTC
Please, add font-manager to portage.

From its home page:

font-manager: A font management application for the GNOME desktop.

Font Manager is not intended to be a professional-grade font management solution, but rather a simple application suitable for the needs of most desktop users.

Although designed with the GNOME desktop environment in mind, it should work well with most major desktop environments such as Xfce, Enlightenment, and even KDE.

Font Manager currently allows the user to:

        Preview installed fonts
        Compare installed fonts
        Easily install or remove fonts
        Easily activate and de-activate installed fonts
        Specify different directories to search for fonts
        Group fonts into "Collections", and easily activate or de-activate groups of fonts
        Export "Collections" to an archive for easy backup, sharing, etc.
        Provides quick access to all GNOME font utilities.

In the future Font Manager intends to allow the user to:

        Export "Collections" to a PDF "fontbook" (partially implemented)
        Edit font metadata
        Convert fonts to a different format

Reproducible: Always
