I never seem to get caught up enough to get onto the SuSE factory
program. I see a what I consider a bug in 10.0 that isn't in 9.3 and
wonder if anyone else can tell me if it is known about and/or fixed for
10.1.
On this work in progress
http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/auth/Font/font-helvetica.html if you look in
the 2nd table where I've mixed several other fonts in with Helvetica in
pt sizes for comparison, in 9.3 both Konqueror and Firefox 1.5.0.1
render the font Nimbus Sans L when Helvetica is requested, as directed
by the alias in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf.
In 10.0 in Konqueror, the first sans-serif listed in the fonts.conf
file's "Sans-serif faces" section is substituted instead, while that
same substitution only happens in Firefox only when something other than
the generic "sans-serif" is selected as a Firefox sans-serif preference.
9.2 behavior is more like 10.0 than 9.3.
I've looked also at several other distros, and only 9.3 seems to be
correctly behaving according to what fonts.conf seems to be prescribing.
