Hi,
I have some concerns too
- I would prefer if either it would be done upstreams first. Even if
the font pachages don't change very often, these change will make
future merges less easy.
As an alternative, this could be added as before- or afterinstall:
target to the respective Makefile.bsd-wrappers. without touching the
upstream files. (fonts/Makefile.inc can be used to factorize part of
the rules).
- there are a few fonts which produce an error/ warning when
generating the otb files:
Couldn't determine full name for micro.otb
Couldn't get family name for micro.otb
Couldn't determine full name for decsess.otb
Couldn't get family name for decsess.otb
Couldn't determine full name for deccurs.otb
Couldn't get family name for deccurs.otb
May be they can be left alone ?
- running make checkdist after make release also show
> ./usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/cursor.bdf
it looks like a typo in cursor-misc/Makefile.{am,in} (BDF_FILES
intead of OTB_FILES)
