ghostscript-tools-fonts contains some tooling but no font files contains. This is really harmful to install a font with "*-fonts". Please consider to rename it like ghostscript-fonts-tools or something. Reproducible: Always
Hi Akira, the sequence was intentional - gs contains several types of tools, while this specific package contains tools for fonts. So while user does not get fonts with this package, but they get tools which they can use with fonts, so they are font related. IMHO installing packages via asterisk is not a safe way how to install set of packages - is there any other reason why this name is problematic?
Basically IMO the name implies "tools for fonts", not "fonts package".
That obviously described in our packaging guidelines at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/FontsPolicy/#:~:text=Other%20upstream%20files,%2Dfonts%20naming: Other upstream files Support for other font systems, for specific applications, non-OpenType font formats, bulky documentation, TEX, CSS, or JSON files… MUST be split in separate non-font packages, that SHOULD install outside /usr/share/fonts, and MUST NOT use <something>-fonts naming.

That is the first valid argument and SHOULD have been the first one. Now, how can we rename the subpackages to be conformant as well as clear: ghostscript-tools-fonts.noarch ghostscript-tools-printing.noarch ghostscript-tools-dvipdf.noarch I'd suggest either ghostscript-tools-fonttools or ghostscript-tools-psfont, because reordering the stems is not helpful.
Either naming works for me.
Hi Michael! IMO we don't need to rename those other two, right? I don't see an issue with them. I'll create a PR for the fonts though - I would go for -fonttools. Zdenek
I have created the PR - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ghostscript/pull-request/44 - please leave a feedback there (I have gone with -fontutils in the end, to do not repeat 'tools').
Looks good to me.
