           Summary: [GTK] [DRT] ttf-liberation fonts moved to a new
                    location (in Debian)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Gtk
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pnormand at igalia.com


The fonts-liberation package (previously ttf-liberation) installs the fonts to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation

We already added a case for Fedora font paths one year ago. For each font filename there were 2 possible paths. Adding a new search path involves adding a new dimension in the fontPaths variable in initializeFonts(). This is rather painful, I'd propose to have two separate arrays, one for the directories and one for the font filenames we need to register in fontconfig.

While this involves a speed penalization I think it's easier to maintain.
