[Fontconfig] Relegating freefonts to the end of the <prefer> list
Hi All, I filed a bug report, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7429 to relegate Freefonts to the end of the <prefer> list. This means that without much other configuration, the proper CJK fonts will be selected. Of course, the correct solution is to add this support in fontconfig to be able to "ignore" a range of glyphs in some fonts. As more languages/scripts are being used, this fine-tuning on the availability of glyphs in fonts is important to have. For example, Hindi and Nepalese share the same script, Devanagari. The Nepali users may prefer a different Devanagari font. Simos
