Hi! I'm afraid that pabs has raised the issue of unbuildable source, mentioned in the ITP: https://bugs.debian.org/950152 The font is given as FontLab source files, and there's no way to compile them into .ttf without using proprietary tools. Unless some converter from .vfc/.vfj can be found and included in main, the only way this package can enter the archive is into the contrib section. Also, it's pointless to ship .eot files -- they are supported only by Internet Explorer (not even Edge), which can also accept ordinary .ttf files which are portable and smaller.
