Description Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2004-03-16 07:38:51 UTC

The ebuilds in media-fonts vary. I think it would be better creating an eclass for them, because:
1.) all should show a message what to do to get the fonts working (like FontPath "/usr/share/local/MYFONT").
2.) the fontpath should not vary FONT_PATH=/usr/share/fonts should be in the eclass, so that the ebuilds will be installed in the right place
3.) some fonts need to be converted. maybe move this to the eclass

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

4.) Bug #44842, #44840 and #44839 can be solved with this eclass
