Inconsolata (font)

[Perry E. Metzger]

Raph Levien's excellent monospace font "Inconsolata" is really great for software developers who have to stare at a screen all day:

It made debian package-of-the-day recently:

http://debaday.debian.net/2007/08/15/rd-ttf-inconsolata-an-open-font-for-your-terminal-and-for-nice-code-printouts/

but it doesn't appear to be available for Gutsy. The Debian package should be trivial to steal, and even repackaging would be trivial since it is just one file that needs installing.

[Roberto Sarrionandia (rbs-tito)]

Agreed, this should be packaged.

[Michael Bienia (geser)]

It's already synced from Debian unstable (ttf-inconsolata) and waits currently to be reviewed by the archive admins. This may take some days.
