--- Comment #10 from Nicolas Mailhot <nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net> ---
PS Droid Fallback is a high coverage – low quality compromise. As a rule the
same glyphs in locale-specific Droid parts will always be higher quality.
That’s why the package tries to ship as many locale-specific bits as possible
and Droid has a complex fontconfig file that mashes everything in a single
droid family making sure fallback is only used when there is no better Droid
part available.
Well, the fontconfig file is not complex as in hard, it’s complex as a bit
involved and requiring enough packager involvement to understand the fontconfig
logic instead of cargo-culting default config file templates with no
understanding.
Noto should probably benefit from the same setup, as it has the same
characteristics (wide encoding font spread over many files that need merging in
a single Noto font family by fontconfig instead of forcing users to assemple
them manually)
