kateb list doesn't list all fonts about kateb HOT 2 OPEN

It makes sense that sudo kateb list only shows the fonts that are available by all users but I think kateb list should show both the fonts that are installed by the user and the fonts that are available system wide. I took a look at the source code and currently it's impossible to do so due to the fact that root user's config files are stored in /root/.config/kateb and a user normally doesn't have read access to there. So I suggest to move the config files for system wide fonts to another directory (/etc seems like a good place) that way it's possible to see all of the fonts when running kateb list.

Sudo is a command to execute user commands through the root user, when you run sudo kateb list, it will show you the fonts installed by the root user, these fonts are widely available in the system by all users

when you run kateb list, it will show the fonts installed by the current user, and are only available to this user
