This bug has been filed because we've detected your package includes one or several font files: repoquery -C --repoid=rawhide -f '*.ttf' -f '*.otf' -f '*.pfb' -f '*.pfa' --qf='%{SOURCERPM}\n' |sed -e 's+-[0-9.-]*\.fc[123456789]\(.*\)src.rpm++g'|sort|uniq Unfortunately the script does not detect symlinks to other packages, so if that's your case, you can close this bug report now. Otherwise, you should know that: - Fedora guidelines demand the packaging of fonts in a separate package or subpackage: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Avoid_bundling_of_fonts_in_other_packages - our font packaging guidelines recently changed, and every package that ships fonts must be adapted to the new templates available in the fontpackages-devel package. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Fonts_packaging_automation_(2008-11-18) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_fonts_policy_package http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Simple_fonts_spec_template http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_spec_template_for_multiple_fonts Please make your package conform to the current guidelines in rawhide. If your package is not principaly a font package, depending on a separate font package or subpackage is the prefered solution. If your application does not use fontconfig you can always package symlinks to the files provided by the font package and installed in the correct fontconfig directories. It is preferred to make a font package or subpackage per font family, though it is not currently a hard guidelines requirement (it may become before Fedora 11 is released). The definition of a font family is given on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_spec_template_notes/font-family The new templates should make the creation of font subpackages easy and safe. The following packages have already been converted and can serve as examples: - andika-fonts - apanov-heuristica-fonts - bitstream-vera-fonts - charis-fonts - dejavu-fonts - ecolier-court-fonts - edrip-fonts - gfs-ambrosia-fonts - gfs-artemisia-fonts - gfs-baskerville-fonts - gfs-bodoni-classic-fonts - gfs-bodoni-fonts - gfs-complutum-fonts - gfs-didot-classic-fonts - gfs-didot-fonts - gfs-eustace-fonts - gfs-fleischman-fonts - gfs-garaldus-fonts - gfs-gazis-fonts - gfs-jackson-fonts - gfs-neohellenic-fonts - gfs-nicefore-fonts - gfs-olga-fonts - gfs-porson-fonts - gfs-solomos-fonts - gfs-theokritos-fonts - stix-fonts - yanone-kaffeesatz-fonts If you have any remaining questions about the new guidelines please ask them on fedora-fonts-list at redhat.com

$ rpm -ql kdeedu | grep ttf /usr/share/kde4/apps/blinken/fonts/steve.ttf /usr/share/kde4/apps/khangman/fonts/Domestic_Manners.ttf /usr/share/kde4/apps/khangman/fonts/Dustismo_Roman.ttf Per Kevin's investigation, looks like these use sjfonts, dustismo-fonts, respectively, per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Steve_Hand_fonts https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Dustimo_fonts other links: http://www.dustismo.com/ (down?) http://ospublish.constantvzw.org
Those are all in the Fedora wishlist. Clean packages would be appreciated (and would made the fonts available to all the fontconfig apps)
+1, understood and agreed. I wasn't aware of these being bundled at all before your audit.
Domestic_manners is currently not on the wishlist - it is here http://www.urbanfonts.com/fonts/Domestic_Manners.htm
It's from the same author as Dustismo Roman. There are some more of his fonts. Unfortunately, the original site (www.dustismo.com) is no longer up, so we have to trust third-party sites to tell the truth about licensing, e.g.: http://patch-tracking.debian.net/patch/debianonly/view/ttf-dustin/20030517-4
See also http://www.1001fonts.com/member_profile.html?author_id=1719 - the ZIP files in there have a license.txt saying they're GPLv2+ (which matches the information from the Debian package).
(In reply to comment #5) > Domestic_manners is currently not on the wishlist - it is here > http://www.urbanfonts.com/fonts/Domestic_Manners.htm So just add a new entry in the wishlist, and package the font :p
To help packagers manage the transition to the new guidelines, we've published the following FAQ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Shipping_fonts_in_other_packages_(FAQ)
FPC approved those two additional guidelines recently, please take them into account if you need to create or update a fonts package or subpackage: – 2009-01-14: naming http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Font_package_naming_%282009-01-13%29 — 2009-01-06: exact splitting rules http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Font_package_splitting_rules_%282008-12-21%29 (packagers that can drop font files and just depend on an existing font package are not impacted)
kdeedu / khangman from kde 4.2 doesn't seem to ship dustismo anymore - only SteveHand (called steve.ttf in kdeedu) and Domestic_Manners.ttf (which still needs to be packaged).
There's no copy of Dustismo Roman in our 4.2.0 packages because we're using the copy you packaged and removing the shipped one.
We're now using the system copies of the dustin-*-fonts. What's left to look into is SteveHand alias steve.ttf. There's now a system sj-stevehand-fonts (thanks Sven!). Rex, can you please check how to get Blinken to use the system copy?
