Is this simply that we don't bother installing fonts that are not for our locale ?
Yes, unfortunately we don't bother installing for languages different than the installation language. There have been several bugs about this problem already. I would have liked to install a minimal set of fonts covering most languages by default but could never get enough support for that idea.
if so - is this a potential PackageKit hook ?
You can add simplified Chinese as a secondary language in YaST2, then you will get packages for simplified Chinese support installed, including (but not only) fonts. xpdf, evince, okular, ... could be improved to pop up a note: "you need Chinese fonts for this document, please do ..." or something to that effect. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
