Mike, I am forwarding the message I received from Manmathan. Kindly do the needful. Rajesh
Thank you. Updated fontconfig oackages for SuSE 8.2 are here:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.2-i586/fontconfig-2.2.0-11.i586.rpm
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.2-i586/fontconfig-devel-2.2.0-11.i586.rpm
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.2-src/fontconfig-2.2.0-11.src.rpm
You need to install these packages with
rpm -Uhv --force
because they conflict with XFree86-libs on SuSE 8.2.
The fontconfig contained in XFree86 4.3.0 was used on SuSE 8.2. I
think that was a mistake as it makes it harder to update
fontconfig. For SuSE >= 8.3 it will be an extra package.
After installing the above updated fontconfig packages and the Tamil
OpenType fonts from
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.2-noarch/fonts-tamil-0.20030512-0.noarch.rpm
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.2-src/fonts-tamil-0.20030512-0.src.rpm
fc-list should be able to list Tamil fonts:
mfabian@gregory:~$ fc-list ":lang=ta"
TSCu_Paranar:style=Bold
TSCu_Times:style=Normal
TAMu_Maduram:style=Normal
TSCu_Comic:style=Normal
AkrutiTml1:style=Bold
AkrutiTml2:style=Bold
TAMu_Kadambri:style=Regular
TAMu_Kalyani:style=Regular
AkrutiTml2:style=Normal
AkrutiTml1:style=Normal
TSCu_Paranar:style=Regular
mfabian@gregory:~$
