Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Peter Hutterer 2021-04-23 01:50:47 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1952723 +++

Description of problem:
The daewoo-misc fonts are potentially proprietary, the only information in COPYING is:

"Copyright (c) 1987, 1988 Daewoo Electronics Co.,Ltd."

These fonts were first present in X11R5 (1991), see the fonts/bdf/misc/hanglg16.bdf file and similar. The COPYING file we use now is from the COPYRIGHT line in the .bdf file, other fonts (e.g. the schumacher ones) seem to have COMMENT: lines to explain the terms. 

I can't find any other information about license terms for this font but given the age of the copyright notice, I'm not very hopeful either.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-fonts-7.5-30.fc34
