Spec URL: http://ozamosi.fedorapeople.org/gdouros-alexander-fonts.spec SRPM URL: http://ozamosi.fedorapeople.org/gdouros-alexander-fonts-3.01-1.fc12.src.rpm Description: A text typeface using the Greek letters designed by Alexander Wilson (1714-1786), a Scottish doctor, astronomer, and typefounder, who established a typefoundry in Glasgow in 1744. The type was especially designed for an edition of Homer’s epics, published in 1756-8 by Andrew and Robert Foulis, printers to the University of Glasgow. A modern revival, Wilson Greek, was designed by Matthew Carter in 1995. Peter S. Baker is also using Wilson’s Greek type in his Junicode font for medieval scholars (2007). Latin and Cyrillic are based on a Garamond typeface. The font covers the Windows Glyph List, IPA Extensions, Greek Extended, Ancient Greek Numbers, Byzantine and Ancient Greek Musical Notation, various typographic extras and several Open Type features (Case-Sensitive Forms, Small Capitals, Subscript, Superscript, Numerators, Denominators, Fractions, Old Style Figures, Historical Forms, Stylistic Alternates, Ligatures). It was created by George Douros. rpmlint gives a no-documentation warning. Upstream distributes no documentation.
Spec is clean. Regarding the fontconfig part: 1. a Greek font belongs to the < 65 range (≥ 65 is anything that does not fit in Latin - Greek - Cyrillic, see fontconfig-priorities.txt) 2. are you sure this is a fantasy font? I seems quite usable in a professional context to me (see fontconfig-generics.txt) However both elements are quite easy to tweak even after inclusion and you've been a solid packager to far. Therefore I'm going to approve the package and let you the judge on them. ⟴⟴⟴ APPROVED ⟴⟴⟴ You can now continue from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Font_package_lifecycle#3.a I hope the process was pleasant, and that it will inspire you to package a other fonts for Fedora. Please do not hesitate to suggest improvements to our organisation or documentation on the fonts mailing list. Thank you for another contribution to our font package pool.
(It may be a good idea to package the pdf of samples on the author's page as %doc BTW)
