Why would you do that? I thought you would be testing SSv2.patch against
master, because the only problem I have found in distcheck is that the
download file is moved to font/devpdf twice, once when it is copied from
download.in and then again after BuildFoundries.pl has populated a temporary
file with new entries and it is moved again. Since, for some reason (you
ignored my question why?) all files installed by distcheck are read only, so
when the file is copied the second time, on my system, it pauses for
confirmation. I did try to explain this before. After you have tested
SSv2.patch applied to master and confirmed everything works as expected, I'm
sure you will want to "improve" devpdf.am, but you will find it easier
starting from a make file which is actually working.

I look forward to hearing if my patch alone on master works for you, as it
does for me.
