-/** Font configuration scheme
- - ./config-compat.patch makes fontconfig try the following root configs, in order:
-    $FONTCONFIG_FILE, /etc/fonts/${configVersion}/fonts.conf, ${fontconfig.out}/etc/fonts/fonts.conf
-    This is done not to override config of pre-2.11 versions (which just blow up)
-    and still use *global* font configuration at NixOS,
-    falling back to upstream defaults on non-NixOS.
- - NixOS creates /etc/fonts/${configVersion}/fonts.conf link to $out/etc/fonts/fonts.conf,
-    and other modifications should go to /etc/fonts/${configVersion}/conf.d
- - See ./make-fonts-conf.xsl for config details.
