Hi,
during my font packaging for M17N:fonts, I've come across an
installation issue for Web fonts.
For example, let's consider the St Marie[1] font. It is such a "Web
font"[2] and is published in several Web font formats as SVG[3],
EOT[4], and Woff[5].
The current root directory to search for fonts is /usr/share/fonts.
It contains several subdirectories whereas truetype and Type1 are
certainly the best known/most used. But... there is no directory for
SVG, EOT, and Woff files.
IMHO they should be separated, but no other dir seems to fit. Where do
I install such files?
Thanks!
