Currently adding a font recipe to an image doesn't have enough
dependencies to cause mkfontdir-native to be included in the native
sysroot. This creates problems with the postinstall scripts for fonts
which call mkfontdir to create font index files: font.dir. The end
result is missing font.dir files in the built image and a malfunctioning
font system.
Dependencies for the relevant recipes currently look like this:
* <font.bb> [D ] -> font-util-native
[R ] -> encodings, font-util
[RN] -> font-util-native
* font-util [D ] -> encodings
[R ] -> mkfontdir, mkfontscale, encodings
[RN] -> mkfontdir-native, mkfontscale-native
* encodings [D ] -> mkfontscale-native, font-util-native
* mkfontdir [R ] -> mkfontscale
[RN] -> mkfontscale-native
* mkfontscale [D ] -> libfontenc
* libfontenc [D ] -> font-util
Where:
* D = DEPENDS
* R = RDEPENDS
* RN = RDEPENDS_class-native
* <font.bb> e.g. font-adobe-100dpi*.bb
Some details where omitted for clarity e.g. dependencies on util-macros.
I believe the intent behind the RDEPENDS_class-native chain:
* <font.bb> -> font-util-native -> mkfontdir-native
was to provide the necessary dependency on mkfontdir. However because
the native sysroot is not built from packages this RDEPENDS_class-native
chain doesn't have the desire effect (i.e. it doesn't pull in
mkfontdir-native).
Changing the RDEPENDS_class-native chain into a DEPENDS_class-native
chain is a non-starter because of the build time dependency loop it
creates:
* font-util-native -> mkfontscale-native -> libfontenc-native -> font-util-native
Having upstream remove the build time dependency of libfontenc on
font-util is also a non-starter[1] even though it does create problems
in other distributions, for example on Debian see [2], [3].
Instead add a DEPENDS on mkfontdir-native in the encodings recipe in
addition to the mkfontscale-native dependency it already contains. This
solves the missing mkfontdir in the native sysroot problem without
introducing a build dependency loop.

The .inc file sets RDEPENDS for the general font case but the dependencies
don't apply to this recipe. This removes those dependencies, simplifying the
dependency chains a little.

* Jansa: rebased on current master, added nocompiler patch also to
font-alias, dropped allarch from linux-firmware, gnome-icon-theme, hal-info as
those are checking compiler (ie in intltool check) and better to build
them as default arch instead of rebuilding after every machine
change.
* this is also part of [BUGID# 1075]

Since font-util produces binaries it shouldn't be marked as "all"
package architecture. To achieve this we need to move the settings
out the common include file.
This fixes errors like:

I've cleaned up some odd license fields, fixed some license
names and corrected some incorrect licenses. LICENSE really needs
a pass through by the maintainers as some of the licensing is
incorrect.
Also, every license with Artistic should be gone through and noted as
which version of Artistic.

Add more detailed SUMMARY and DESCRIPTIONS to various graphics and
graphics related components. I've recently gotten question from users
what something is, or why it was needed.. this should go a long way toward
answering those questions.
Many of the descriptions were taken directly from the upstream location,
where one was not available the Debian packages were consulted for
information.
