It's pretty much the same thing as the blocker to make the non-lgc
DejaVu a distribution default was arabic/farsi conflicts last time the
problem was raised.

LGC users won't notice the difference and lgc will still be available
in the repo for people that do not like a dejavu-full default and
prefer lgc only.

I suppose you can make changes in F9 comps now. It's not as if anyone
but hardcore rawhide users will see them before test1 (and if we
finally decide not to do it it can be undone later easily)
