<pre>I agree with the extra package for the fonts only.
I also agree with the infobar notifying more visually the user about the
missing fonts
(<a href="https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2016/10/21/dealing-with-missing-fonts/">https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2016/10/21/dealing-with-missing-fonts/</a>).
But I created a Bug ID which, to date, remains open:
<a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - CONFIGURATION: Enhance Font Substitution Table"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=64509">https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64509</a>
On this Bug ID I commented about enhancing the font substitution table. There
Caólan McNamara told me about the vcl.xcu file which have the default font
substittuons, but I had to find myself how to edit that file (luckily I found
the
"<a href="https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice_Localization_Guide/Advanced_Source_Code_Modifications">https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice_Localization_Guide/Advanced_Source_Code_Modifications</a>"
page).
I edited the vcl.xcu file, but as I am not a developer nor I know how to submit
patches to the source tree (I think arcane magic should be handled with care),
I just submitted my version of the file on that Bug ID (it became
"<a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - CONFIGURATION: Enhance Font Substitution Table"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=64509">https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64509</a>").
I am more than willing to help with the font substitution table (it's just a
matter of knowing which fonts can be substituted for which, and editing a text
file), as it has the potential to avoid installing unneeded fonts by using the
next best alternate font family (Bitstream Vera fonts can easily be substituted
for DejaVu or DejaVu LGC fonts -- Latin/Greek/Cyrillic), but I need someone to
submit the patches for me (installing arcane magic software to submit patches
is not for me).
PS: DejaVu could be substituted for DejaVu LGC to minimize space.</pre>
