- Fix how to use CUPS' own fonts (bnc#856731). In ancient times
(see the below entry dated "Thu Aug 16 17:05:19 CEST 2001")
there was the idea to deviate from CUPS upstream and save
some disk space and do not install CUPS' own fonts.
CUPS' own fonts were removed and the CUPS font
directory was replaced by a symbolic link
/usr/share/cups/fonts -> ../ghostscript/fonts
because at that times the Ghostscript fonts had been the same
as CUPS' own fonts. In any case such a link is a fragile
non-future-proof interference because when either the Ghostscript
fonts or CUPS' own fonts change, linking them as same is wrong.
Since a long time the Ghostscript fonts do no longer work
for CUPS' particular needs but nobody noticed it until now.
But it is not possible with RPM to replace a directory by a
symbolic link or vice versa. This means /usr/share/cups/fonts
must stay forever as a symbolic link and the only way out is
to move CUPS' own fonts to an artificial surrogate directory
/usr/share/cups/CUPSfonts and have the symbolic link now
/usr/share/cups/fonts -> /usr/share/cups/CUPSfonts

# Use CUPS' own fonts (i.e. make CUPS work again in compliance with upstream).
# In ancient times (see the RPM changelog entry dated "Thu Aug 16 17:05:19 CEST 2001")
# there was the general opinion it would be a great idea to deviate from CUPS upstream
# and save some disk space and do not install CUPS' own fonts in CUPS' own font directory.
