This ttf-indic-fonts is a set of TrueType and OpenType fonts. It include: - Bengali - Devanagari - Gujarati - Kannada - Malayalam - Oriya - Punjabi - Tamil - Telugu By the Debian source ttf-indic-fonts. WWW: http://debian-in.org URL: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/ttf-indic-fonts Note: The port x11-fonts/fonts-indic is a collection of Indic font by the Lohit project and installs a font subset of this port, the Lohit family; but, although the origin of fonts is the same, the Lohit project, that distfile is maintained by Gentoo people, and could have different revisions. The principal difference to notice is that the gentoo distfile provides the Lohit support for the Malayalam language, that the Debian people didn't want include, because, for an old problem, it doesn't work very well with the present rendering engine. In any way you can install both the port without any problems. If you need Malayalam support for the Lohit family, you can install merely also that port and, if, for any reasons, you want to use a particular font set, you have to change the loading priority in your configuration files.
