Hi Behdad, original source is from http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/smc/fonts/malayalam-fonts-04.1.zip just edited it for testing good to know it is working perfectly where should i submit this patch 1) to fontconfig package? or 2) will it ok to copy it to /etc/conf.d through smc-fonts package? IMO second one is not right let me know so i can do remaining things for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448078 Thanks, Pravin S 2008/7/24 Behdad Esfahbod [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi again, I tested your snippet and it works perfectly.

IMO second one is not right We have many packages that do that, because isuing a fontconfig update each time a maintainer wants to change a fontconfig rule for his font is frankly not scalable.
