What I really want StarSuite to do are:

   removes unnecessary ones by themselves after integration is completed.

The instruction mentioned above is not intended for normal, casual use.
It is for enterprise use.

I think Philipp's idea will work well by simply assigning an empty list
to the new environment variable like:
 SAL_FONTPATH=
 export SAL_FONTPATH

We can have that even simpler, we do not need to search for fonts outside OOo's private directories at all if required; setting an environment variable would then lead to only the fonts in <ooo>/share/fonts/truetype being visible. However you need to make sure that suitable replacements for the most standard fonts (Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, Times, Times New Roman, etc. ) are available, else you will run into severe cases of documents not looking like everywhere else.

Kind regards, pl
