If only want to switch from 'some fonts' to 'no fonts', then the goal should be to leave the individual font packages as 'bool' and only change MENU_XORG_FONTS/XORG_FONTS to tristate. However, that's currently not quite that simple because xorg-fonts provides the dependencies. Hmmm, try this for the font packages: ifdef PTXCONF_XORG_FONTS PACKAGES-$(PTXCONF_XORG_FONT_<SOMETHING>) += xorg-font-<something> endif Then the packages should be skipped if XORG_FONTS is not selected in the collection.
