No problems at all, Noah.

My pleasure.  Sorry it took so long.

I will let full-fledged Yast Team members answer that question.

I do not want a title that stretches across two monitors, though, LOL.

Not too sure about that, Noah.  I just went by the other examples in Yast.  I
am in early stages of learning how to maintain and continue developing this
Fonts module.

> I'm willing to do work,

... above all, please do not feel I was needling you, Noah.  I was not, so I
would like you not to feel uncomfortable.

>From the first time you reported this issue, I have been eager to find the time
to learn what to do and then actually fix this issue for you and any others
interested.

But, I have a heck of a lot to learn, yet, as well as so many other things to
do.

If you are inclined, and if you feel you have the time, there are many ways you
can help contribute to openSUSE.

This would be a good starting point:

Any and all help is always appreciated.

Thanks,
