Revision as of 18:43, 21 November 2008

A page of the Fonts Special Interest Group

The following table attempts to trace font package inclusion history in Fedora and its predecessors (Fedora Core, Fedora Extras, Fedora.us). Package availability is mostly listed at release time, except when the rolling nature of the repository (Fedora Extras, Fedora.us) made this check difficult.

In Fedora 8 fonts for all available languages are now installed by default on the desktop to give good default language coverage.

Most of the fonts in generically named font packages have been moved to their own packages (Baekmuk, Lohit…) to reflect the upstream name and make font choices easier.

The large and necessary F8 package churn thus does not correspond to the inclusion of many new fonts.

Fedora Extras is announced.

Attempt to clean up and consolidate Fedora Core font package naming. Since the rules chosen are different from the community rules of Fedora Extras, more mass renaming will quickly follow.

MgOpen is merged.

Bitstream Vera is merged as default font.

XFree86 is replaced by Xorg, leading to mass X font package renaming (wouldn't be the last one).

Fedora rises from Red Hat Linux ashes. XFree86 is the only distribution font provider.

The community packages its first font set, MathML fonts.
