He taught at the Fine Arts School of Athens and established the first book design workshop from which many practising artists of the 60's and 70's had graduated. In the late 50's Kefallinos designed and published an exquisite book with engraved illustrations of the ancient white funerary pottery in Attica in collaboration with Varlamos, Montesanto, Damianakis. For the text of Kefallinos' Δέκα λευκαί λήκυθοι (1956) the artist used a typeface which he himself had designed a few years before for an unrealised edition of Theocritos' Idyls. Its complex and heavily decorative design does point to aesthetic codes which preoccupied his artistic expression and, although impractical for contemporary text setting, it remains an original display face, or it can be used as initials. The book design workshop of the Fine Arts School of Athens has been recently reorganised, under the direction of professor Leoni Vidali, and with her collaboration George D. Matthiopoulos has redesigned digitaly this historical font which is now available as GFS Theokritos.

If a line is exceeding this number, cut it to fit in two lines. gfs-theokritos-fonts.noarch: W: no-version-in-last-changelog The last changelog entry doesn't contain a version. Please insert the version that is coherent with the version of the package and rebuild it.
Updated version posted at the usual place to cut lines at 79 columns. Note that rpmlint does not know how to count UTF-8 characters, so if it still complains do check in an UTF-8 aware editor he's actually right (he isn't) On the other rpmlint warning: rpmlint wants to force you to put the version at the end of the first changelog line, however the official approved Fedora changelog format list includes a style where the version is not on this line (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Changelogs, 3rd style) so rpmlint's warning is bogus
I agree it was big work for you to ask to fix small issue but still I prefer to follow what rpmlint says till rpmlint tool gives it as Error and not Warning.
Dunno, But with updated version I still see gfs-theokritos-fonts.src: E: description-line-too-long Kefallinos' Δέκα λευκαί λήκυθοι (1956) the artist used a typeface which he Otherwise Packaging looks ok. APPROVED. I don't want you to waste your time again now so if you want to fix it then fix at time of cvs import.
rpmlint is wrong. I actually cheched the line it tags manually - it's less than 79 columns in UTF-8, which is our default encoding.
