Comment 1 for bug 82724

Correction:

I Googled for how to actually install fonts. I followed the instructions I found and opened up ~/.fonts/ and discovered that the font had, in fact, been installed. However:

1. It hadn't been installed to the place I had put it (the fonts:/// window),
2. the fonts:/// window hadn't indicated that the font had been installed by including it in the list of fonts,
3. no message had been displayed to indicate that the font had been diverted elsewhere, and
4. no message had been displayed when I tried repeating the drag-drop, which presumably silently overwrote the copy in ~/.fonts/ each time.
