or entirely the CSS suggestions. Any portion of any kind of branding flowing through CSS cannot be guaranteed, including that through images loaded via CSS rather than JS or HTML. Thus, google-opensans-fonts cannot be a legitimate hard requirement, and should be suggested or recommended only.
I understand.
In https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-packaging/2015-04/msg00076.html I was asked to file a bug about this by Rick Salevsky, which I did: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=926792 It remains IN_PROGRESS with no discussion or action other than Rick taking the bug's assignment.
Oops. I did not read the thread to the end. Ping the bugzilla? And that thread?
I find google-opensans inferior to the other installed by default fonts, and do not ever want to see it on my own systems. It's much easier to remove the package than it is to figure out the fontconfig configuration rat's nest to substitute something else whenever CSS calls it. I install release-notes-openSUSE "broken" and it works peachy with Noto or Roboto or Liberation or whatever the installed by default CSS fallback suggestion is.
Unfortunately, doing so makes YaST nags the admin every time about brokenness :-( There are too many fonts installed. I would like to see only a few in Libre Office, those that I may use. But I can not remove them, breaks deps. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
