The upstream conversation indicates it still isn’t resolved. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/fontconfig/-/work_items/92 Based on that, I think Debian should consider it a bug for WOFF or WOFF2 fonts to be installed under /usr/share/fonts/. It appears that the convention currently used by several packages is: /usr/share/fonts-fontname/woff/ /usr/share/fonts-fontname/woff2/ Does anyone have any objections if we standardize that as a policy recommendation and update the lintian tests to match? -- Soren Stoutner [email protected]
