Package: java-package
Version: 0.24
Severity: important
Most international fonts don't work inside java applets on debian
because it falls back to a generic minimal
fontconfig.properties. There are much more complete ones provided for
other distributions, but none for debian.
I took the fontconfig.RedHat.8.0.properties.src and did
's/misc-kochi /kochi-/' and copied it as fontconfig.properties,
and that got lots more fonts working including the japanese ones I wanted.
It should probably be called something like fontconfig.debian.properties, but
I don't know exactly what.
