I really appreciate this feature. Sadly, it isn't working for me because
the post-install script that achieves this doesn't quote the filenames.
So if a font has a space in its filename you end up with a symbolic link
that points to itself.
Please could you update the post-install script
'zp_fontconfig_cache_1.sh'. The following worked for me:
for f in $(grep -l 'Microsoft Corp' "`cygpath -W`"/Fonts/*.ttf)
do
if [ ! -e "/usr/share/fonts/microsoft/${f##*/}" ]
then
ln -s "$f" "/usr/share/fonts/microsoft/"
fi
done
Many thanks in advance,
Dave.
