>> 2. we don't do it for the distro default fonts, why should we do it for Nimbus?

>The urw fonts are installed in the 'default' sub-directory of /usr/share/fonts.
>ghostscript depends on them. 

The way ghostscript chooses to name the directories in which it dumps its fonts
has no relationship whatsoever with the distribution defaults.

>> 9. and anyway this kind of change belongs upstream

> And where is "upstream" for the urw-fonts?

More reason not to increase the confusion

> I wasn't aware there was a fedora-fonts mail list.
