Summary: Useless font auto-installer calls
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: fontconfig
AssignedTo: besfahbo at redhat.com
ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot at laposte.net
QAContact: extras-qa at fedoraproject.org
CC: besfahbo at redhat.com, fedora-fonts-bugs-list at redhat.com
Classification: Fedora
The font stack triggers the PK font auto-installer for stuff like N'ko or
Ancient Persian for which fontconfig has no orthography
Therefore, those calls will never succeed and the user is bothered for no good
reason
fc-query/cache should also generate PK metadata for unicode blocks, so that
when the font stack needs a glyph which is not part of an orthography, PK can
search for fonts that cover the corresponding unicode block (stuff like symbols
will probably never make it in an orth)
