DESCRIPTION
defoma-app is a tool to configure the fonts registered in Defoma,
Debian Font Manager, for a specific application. Defoma calls the
Defoma-configuration script of the specified application with register
or unregister command for each of the fonts registered in the
categories accepted by the application. It is supposed to be invoked
from postinst/prerm scripts of application packages, but may be invoked
from console.
application specifies the name of the application that is going to be
configured. The specified application must have application-
name.defoma perl script under /usr/share/defoma/scripts. If category
is specified, only the fonts in the specified categories get processed.
Otherwise all the fonts in all the categories accepted by the
application get processed.
COMMANDS
update Update the configuration of the specified application about the
fonts registered in the specified category. category can be
omitted. When it is specified and the specified category is set
ignored (to be mentioned later), ignore flag gets unset so the
category gets updated. Internally the Defoma-configuration
script of the application gets called with unregister command
first and then with register command for each font of the
category. Some directories and symlinks specified in the header
of the script might be generated automatically.
This command should be invoked when the Defoma-configuration
script is newly installed or updated so that the script gets
installed to Defoma data directory and the fonts get configured
to the application. It means it is supposed to be invoked on the
postinst configure phase.
clean Clean up the configuration of the specified application about
the fonts registered in the specified category. category can be
omitted. Internally the Defoma-configuration script of the
application gets called with unregister command for each font of
the category.
purge This command is almost the same as clean command. It only
differs on removing the script installed in the defoma data
directory and some directories and symlinks if any was generated
in the update command before.
This command should be invoked when the Defoma-configuration
script is going to be removed so that the script gets removed
and the font configuration gets cleaned. It means it is supposed
to be invoked on the prerm remove phase.
ignore This command makes the specified application not use the fonts
registered in the specified category. It removes the fonts in
the category out of the font configuration and sets the ‘ignore’
flag against the category in order to make the Defoma-
configuration script of the application not accept fonts in the
category. If category is omitted, all categories gets ignored.
To unset the ‘ignore’ flag, run defoma-app with update command
and the category against which you want to unset the flag.

-t Exit with true value (0) even if error occurs.
