Why? Noto is effectively Droid v2. It is the same design, produced by the same people, for the same use cases. There are some metric differences, but mostly, it is an evolution of the same family. The only reason it is not called Droid still is that Google realized the Droid naming was a mistake (for trademark reasons, and due to how they contracted out Droid to Ascender in the first place). Droid is definitely the best Fedora font to fallback to if something asks for Noto and the corresponding Noto part is not available. > Hmm, well, that's true. but google-noto-fonts doesn't have unified families > even. and google-noto-cjk-fonts is a separate source package. this is yet a > bit challenge for us. could you stop providing a fallback for Noto in > google-droid-fonts, at least until it is done? Is there an ETA for this? Droid has been unified in Fedora for a decade+. Noto upstream formally requested Noto unification. I don’t see how you can argue in this issue tracker, that unification is a challenge, while arguing in the fontconfig issue tracker, that the existing fontconfig syntax needs no changes and serves font deployment needs well. Forgive me but this has been going on for 10+ years. The “at least until it is done” card expired long ago. Do you have a more definite forward plan than that? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ fonts-bugs mailing list -- fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to fonts-bugs-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org
