Bug Description

Binary package hint: xfonts-mathml

when analysing the .ttf files from xfonts-mathml version 2 with ttx, the name table, which can be found like this:
  for i in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-mathml/math*; do ttx -d . $i; done
has incorrect data.

It looks like the data has been copied from LiberationSerifBold.ttf and applied to all the .ttf files of this package.

Please fix this.

Also the OS/2 table with panose classification has been reused with incorrect values for all the .ttf files in this package.

Pander,

I think these fonts were from old mathematica font package perhaps? They are named like the old mathematica fonts which were installed by "ttf-mathematica 4.1", but are now installed by mathematica-fonts. I don't believe this is an issue with xfonts-mathml.
