xorg-mkfontdir 1.0.7-3 introduced a pacman hook to run mkfontscale and mkfontdir on fonts dirs. We should add the ttc (TrueType Collection) file extension. It is used in some Windows fonts (Cambria for example).
This task depends upon

Do we have packages that have TrueType Collection files?

I remember in AUR there was two or so. One was converted to ttf at packaging, but this is not needed AFAIK, since fontconfig works with ttc files today (and mkfontscale and mkfontdir index them just fine too -- at least they appear in fonts.scale and fonts.dir).

Our package 'opendesktop-fonts' as a ttc file (/usr/share/fonts/TTF/odosung.ttc).
