Bug Description
The current packaging of the font can be improved in various ways to follow what it being done in the upstream pkg-fonts Debian Font Task Force:
- adding VCS-foo and VCS-browser fields to the upstream VCS
- adding bugreport scripts
- expanding the short and long descriptions
- adding a Homepage: field
- moving the section to the newly created dedicated fonts section
- making the copyright file DEP5 compliant when the licensing has been decided
- installing the FONTLOG and other relevant documentation to /usr/share/
- dropping cdbs for better control over the specifics of font packaging
- adding a README.Source
- loosing the defoma dependency (obsolete and uneeded now)
I will take care of providing these packaging improvements when the VCS tree structure is defined. See https:/
Well to me this wasn't really a dup as it was covering other aspects of the packaging but anyway.
