Hi all,

Unicode 7.0 was recently released. I discovered some source packages
contain outdated copies of various Unicode data files. At minimum, the
following packages embed part of the Unicode data (UnicodeData.txt). 

There are probably many more embedding different parts of the Unicode
data, renaming files or converting the Unicode data to other formats and
removing the original formats but I haven't investigated that far yet. 

Please ask your upstreams to remove the Unicode data files from their
version control systems and source tarballs and instead check for and
use external Unicode data files at build-time or run-time. Then your
packages can Build-Depend or Depend on the unicode-data binary package.
If your package converts the Unicode data to another format at build
time you should add a Built-Using header to the relevant binary
packages. The fntsample package is an example of how to do this.
