opening consecutive OTF files duplicates "Info" and "install" buttons. E.g. opening 3 consecutive .otf files will result in 6 buttons (4 of which are duplicates.)

Bug Description

Browsing a directory of fonts (using Thunar) I noticed that the Info and Install buttons in the font viewer were being duplicated. Presumably each button still maintains the correct font-opened-at-that-time relationship but it doesn't seem like this behavior is desired because there is no clear indication as to which button will install which font (whether the leftmost button is the earliest opened font file, or the rightmost... is unclear)

suggestions: Info and Install buttons should clearly state "Install ____.otf" where the blank in the font name in question

or,

just make sure the buttons work for the currently opened font and don't duplicate for successive (or remain for previous) font files that were opened.
