I can confirm that in Gnome now.

Ok. So we need to package these TrueType fonts again.

See also #814844 (wine: fonts-wine fonts are not found). I assume
upstream's fix for that bug now triggers your issue.

Next to my tests there, I also found a real world issue: the login
window of Steam [1] has no writing at all, independently if fonts-wine
(1.8.1-2) is installed and the system's fonts are there or not. Found in
1.9.5-3 and 1.9.6-1, so even before the recent upstream change. Only
installing the Wine TrueType fonts solves this.

However I just noted that the TrueType fonts are generated by upstream.
So we should regenerate before we can package them.

@Mike: Can you implement that? I guess you're fitter in these changes,
it would take me some time to find my way there.

I tried but it didn't fix the issue. I had expected otherwise.

wine-development is on the master branch at
