Enhancement Advisory New fonts-chinese-zysong package

Advisory: RHEA-2009:0965-1
Type: Product Enhancement Advisory
Severity: N/A
Issued on: 2009-05-18
Last updated on: 2009-05-18
Affected Products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Extras (v. 4)
OVAL: N/A

Details

A new package, fonts-chinese-zysong, that implements the Zhong Yi Song
TrueType font is now available.

The fonts-chinese-zysong package provides the Zhong Yi Song font for the
GB18030 standard.

This enhancement provides the Zhong Yi Song TrueType font.

* the Zhong Yi Song TrueType font was formerly part of the ttfonts-zh_CN
package. The copyright in this font belongs to Beijing Zhong Yi Electronics
Co., which has licensed Red Hat Inc. to distribute the font only in
products and software under the Red Hat name. The inclusion of this font in
ttfonts-zh_CN would therefore preclude Red Hat from freely distributing
that package. The Zhong Yi Song TrueType font is still available to Red Hat
customers via the Red Hat Network and the Supplementary CD.

Users who require Chinese support at the GB18030 level are advised to
upgrade to this updated package, which adds this enhancement.
