Hi all,
although one could think it is off topic, IMHO it is very
important/interesting for i18n and l10n people out there.
Yesterday, Valek Fillipov released a new version of URW-fonts (also known
as gnu-gs-fonts). The changes in this release compared to one most distros
have these days are:
o Vietnamese glyphs form urwvn
o Some new Cyrillic glyphs (Uzbek/Tajik/Kazakh/Mongol...)
o Bug fixes
Please try it and report bugs to the author.
You do not have to be root to install them. Simply copy them into ~/.fonts
and run fc-cache ~/.fonts Alternatively, in KDE open Control Center go to
System->Font Installer, the GUI is self-explanatory. I'm sure there is a way
to do the same in GNOME, but I do not know it.
Please spread the word and ask your disto to upgrade urw-fonts package, if you
think it is worth upgrading.
Have a nice day,
Mashrab.
Ps. If you think you wasted your time reading this mail, sorry.
