Description steffen stramm 2007-12-16 21:38:35 UTC

i modified the corefonts 1-r4 ebuild and added a tahoma useflag, if somebody like me does really want to have tahoma. i also added an ewarn, because tahoma bold is broken.

Reproducible: Always

According to other bugs, this would be because a windows license is needed. The corefonts package tends to disagree:

060430 A long awaited overhaul. Many things are fixed, links updated. Selects a random mirror. Uses tahoma from word 97 viewer instead of the ie6 update so no windows license is needed. (from http://corefonts.sf.net)

Can anyone clarify?
