Hi Fabian,
Thanks for your work on fonts-liberation.
As stated in recent transition[1], fonts-liberation package has taken
over liberation2 and the latter is now just an empty binary package for
transistional reason.
However, fonts-liberation2 used to vendor the files in
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation2/
as seen here[2] which has now been pruned[3]. This is breaking packages
that rely on usr/share/truetype/liberation2 for symlinking ttf files
and/or using them in code. One such example is r-cran-fontsliberation
which has now a bunch of broken symlinks.
For now, I've worked around this and pushed commits to salsa, but I'd
like this to be fixed properly.
Could you consider to vendor truetype/liberation2 as a symlink to
truetype/liberation?
