- turn off autohinter for Verdana again, which implies using BCI
with hintstyle=3 [bnc#737215], [bnc#781631]
- updated to 2.10.0:
* /etc/fonts/conf.avail is deprecated and is packaged only
for compatibility reasons; package should install its *.conf
files in its data dir and link it into /etc/fonts/conf.d as
usual
* introduced warning -- <alias> should not contain more <family>s
* introduced warning -- <test> should not contain more values
* introduced warning -- reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf
is deprecated; move ~/.fonts.conf into $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf
(the same for ~/.fonts.conf.d, see
http://freedesktop.org/software/fontconfig/fontconfig-user.html)

config; if they are not present and e. g. system with only droid font
installed, you get "Droid Sans" instead of "Droid Sans Mono" even if
"monospace" requested; that causes e. g. gvim displaying glyphs with
additional space
- add also <default> aliases for DejaVu fonts into SUSE-specific config;
in case that someone has deinstalled them but gui or document explicitly
wants them

- Revisit SUSE-specific config (bnc#766319):
* Split suse-hinting.conf to a part defining the default
autohint and a part defining the default hintstyle depending on
autohint. These are now put in conf.d/11-suse-hinting.conf and
16-suse-hintstyle.conf, so that extra packages may put their
own autohint value between them.
* Move suse-bitmaps.conf to conf.d, too
* Move optional configs modified by fonts-config to fonts-config
package itself
- Set autohint=true for IPA* fonts as well as MS fonts;
hintslight will be chosen automatically (bnc#766319)
- Add missing IPAex* fonts to suse-generic-names.conf lists.
- Obsolete ipa-fonts-config package as the default configs are now
included in this package (forwarded request 124898 from tiwai)

- fix Chinese Mono font.
- set WenQuanYi Micro He as default Chinese font.
- don't install 29-liberation-aliases.conf, because
30-metric-aliases.conf already contains these bindings
- DejaVu Sans, Droid Sans, Liberation Sans: use
hintslight with BCI (instead of hintfull with BCI)
- DejaVu Serif, Droid Serif, Liberation Serif: use
hintslight with BCI (instead of hintfull with BCI)
- DejaVu Sans Mono, Droid Sans Mono, Liberation Mono: keep
hintfull with BCI
- Cantarell: use hintfull with autohinter

and BCI with hintfull seems to better handle distance between e. g. '8' and
'6' for same sizes. Also '8' glyph look better with BCI in smaller sizes.
Therefore, autohint=false and hintstyle=hintfull seems to be the best.

autohint, because longest straight lines in some glyphs such as 'g', 'a',
'B', 'f', etc., are rendered too wide (similar to hintnone). On the
contrary, using BCI with hintstyle=hintfull (likewise for hintstyle=hintmedium)
causes some parts of glyphs fonts to be too thin (see 'R' for example).
So, the best combination seems to be autohinter with hintstyle=hintfull.
