Since probably no-one has the old package name installed, just rename everything, retitle the bug and re-upload. > I have already contacted Intel to ask for the source-code.

Try contacting the site admins about the mailing list: https://01.org/about/contact-us I was able to find some email addresses by doing web searches: The maintainer of the project: Darren Wilson < darren.p.wil...@intel.com> Author of the sole blog post about Clear Sans: Gail R Frederick <gail.r.freder...@intel.com> If upstream is unreachable it might not be a good idea to package the project, unless you want to become upstream. > Is this critical for the packaging, though? DFSG item 2 applies to all packages in Debian, fonts need to come with source too. That could be the binary TTF files or the SVG files but it is much more likely to be something else. Fonts often require proprietary software to build unfortunately, looking at the SVG files some metadata indicates that may be the case. To be sure though, you need to find out upstream development processes. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
