noto-fonts is pulled as a dependency of plasma-integration, but I don't want it installed since it takes over the default fonts (ships an aggressive fontconfig configuration) for many websites, and looks quite bad *for me* (on a 14" FHD display). It's also a 90MB package I don't need.
Hmm, I wonder why it is a hard dependency instead of being used via ttf-font?
I guess it's because plasma-integration ships a /usr/share/kconf_update/fonts_global.pl script that does some font replacements.

That seems a bit confusing :/ since it appears to only be used when migrating away from a previously configured Oxygen selection. Does anything else actually hardcode this? This dependency IMO should have been a post_upgrade message or a noto-fonts replaces=() or something. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
