Bug 53294

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.2.1 
OS:          Linux

a while back ( i may have been using an earlier beta/rc of 3.1 at this time) i installed my windows fonts to my linux fonts dirs using the font intsaller..
the fonts looked great, apart from that when i viewed certain web pages in konqueror, parts of them came up with all the characters as squares :-(
(i never bothered to fix it because the same webpages worked in mozilla for some reason)

today i figured out that this was because the fonts were set to permissions -rw-------, which is how they the permissions that the whole windows partition had when they were copied.

doing a chmod +r (set world-readable) on all the fonts in the truetype dir fixed the problem completely. so...
maybe there should be a check on installing fonts that makes sure that the fonts are world-readable and prompts the user/administrator to change the permissions automatically if they arent?
