Well, now we have a deterministic minimum font set. Which is nice... You can always install additional fonts. The issue with media-fonts/liberation-fonts is quite the opposite: I do not use them and I do not need them, but they got pulled in by libreoffice nonetheless. There are better alternatives in virtual/ttf-fonts.

There are better alternatives in virtual/ttf-fonts. Yes but you may want to work together with other people, and exchange documents. So, to sum up. Even thought I've clearly indicated that I do *not* need those fonts, you're trying to convince me, that I do? K, whatever. |
