Description mejiko 2013-09-02 11:48:21 UTC
Hello.


SFML included "sansation" font.

License URI:

https://law.resource.org/pub/uk/life/fonts/Bernd%20Montag%20License.txt

This license is not allowed modify, sell, and restrictive requirement.
Its non-free.


Suggests:

1. Remove non-free fonts and rebuild.

2. Replace Fedora free (Fedora acceptable licensed) files.

3. Remove Fedora repos.


Thanks.

Blocking FE-Legal, This is license problem.

Comment 2 Michael Schwendt 2013-09-02 12:25:57 UTC
Very interesting:

> -Do not pass the font files without this textfile!

The included font is v1.2 (2008), which was published with the same restrictions file, which is missing in SFML.

[...]

Comment 3 mejiko 2013-10-15 05:01:14 UTC
I best suggests that replace non-free font to free font. (but not tested)

E.g GNU Freefont, libration font, etc...

If removing this font, There code is not work. (I think)


Thanks.
