Comment (by pulkomandy):
It was already discussed when DejaVu was moved to a package. Now we switch
the font to Noto and the problem pops again.
The situation for app_server is very simple: there is one fallback font,
and it is VL-Gothic. The Haiku package should depend on the VL-Gothic one,
so that font is always available. Or, if we decide Noto is the new
fallback, we adjust app_server to use Noto as the fallback font, and then,
the Haiku package could depend on the Noto one.
When that is done, we can also remove the old "bitstream charter" font
which for some reason is still bundled with Haiku. It should also be a
separate package.
