Currently KDE assumes that users will install fonts into $KDEHOME/share/
fonts. I would like to change this to be $HOME/.fonts – so that it will
be accessible by other non KDE applications, and be less desktop
specific. To do this I propose to:
1. Change startkde to only look in ~/.fonts
2. Change Kfontinst to set the user default font folder to ~/.fonts
3. Write a script to move any fonts/folders installed in $KDEHOME/share/
fonts to ~/.fonts. This script would then be called from startkde – as
the font paths ideally should be moved before the desktop has started.
Does this sound reasonable? If so I could probably implement the
changes in a few days.
Craig.
