Thank you Ezequiel,
it means that there's no way to change "automatically" DirectFB behaviour
to show fonts that came in ISO-8859-15 (Latin9) in a UTF-8 system wide ?
I thought it enough reconfigure the system locales and change some
system variables (LANG and LC_* variables) to use these new locales, but
searching more on Ubuntu (10.10) I noticed that Ubuntu doesn't has any
mention on files "encodings.dir" (for example
/usr/share/fonts/X11/encodings/encodings.dir) to string "iso8859-15" and on
this same directory (/usr/share/fonts/X11/encodings) there's
none iso8859-15.enc.gz.
Is this the infrastructure that provides support to encoding ?
To provides ISO-8859-15 "automatically" to system I need provide these
corrected files (iso8859-16.enc.gz and encodings.dir ) ?
Thanks
