[clue-tech] fonts

[Bob Meetin]

you sure that's not reversed, "purge aptitide", which would make sense 
in windows.

so next questionable question.  how do i determine the package name to 
remove?  if i cruise /usr/share/fonts/ there are 3 folders with 
additional subcontents:

% ls *
truetype:
arphic      kochi       thai        ttf-bitstream-vera    
ttf-indic-fonts-core
freefont  openoffice  ttf-arabeyes  ttf-dejavu        unfonts

type1:
gsfonts

X11:
100dpi    75dpi  encodings  misc    Type1  util
%

Then there is also 'xlsfonts | more' which gives another list and of 
course if I open gimp or inkscape the names are once again changed to 
protect the innocent.

The short answer???
