Fedora Silverblue font update.

Post by wove »

Yesterday Fedora Silverblue updated, which is not unusual for it updates pretty often. Yesterday's update included updates for a dozen font families. I thought that was unusual because I do not recall ever having fonts packages update. I guess I just think of fonts kind of like art work and they are just sort of one and done. It would be nice if updates included more comprehensive information on the why and what of the update. Were new characters added? Were characters changed? Can there be security issues with fonts?

The update was seamless and user transparent so everything works as solid and stable as ever, I am just left wonder what changed, which seems to be very common with updates on every system now a days.
