Description

The 20-fix-globaladvance.conf file we have looks like this:

<fontconfig>

    `<match target="font">`
            `<test name="family">``<string>`GulimChe`</string>``</test>`
            `<edit name="globaladvance">``<bool>`false`</bool>``</edit>`
    `</match>`

    `<match target="font">`
            `<test name="family">``<string>`DotumChe`</string>``</test>`
            `<edit name="globaladvance">``<bool>`false`</bool>``</edit>`
    `</match>`

    `<match target="font">`
            `<test name="family">``<string>`BatangChe`</string>``</test>`
            `<edit name="globaladvance">``<bool>`false`</bool>``</edit>`
    `</match>`

    `<match target="font">`
            `<test name="family">``<string>`GungsuhChe`</string>``</test>`
            `<edit name="globaladvance">``<bool>`false`</bool>``</edit>`
    `</match>`

</fontconfig>

Looks to me like this should be changed to target="scan" now?

Also Mandriva has a more generic version:

<fontconfig> <match target="font"> <test target="pattern" name="lang" compare="contains"> <string>zh-tw</string> <string>zh-cn</string> <string>ja</string> <string>ko</string> </test> <edit name="spacing"> <const>proportional</const> </edit> <edit name="globaladvance"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> </fontconfig>

Of course that target="pattern" part is quite bogus. But the idea of matching on languages the font supports has merit.
