I understand your point, however, at this point in the release cycle we should keep any invasive changes to a minimum. Especially because I've just adopted the package. My problem with this patch specifically is that it codes a special exception for that font, and that the package for that font is more than 10 times (!) larger than the average sizes of the others. If it was just a line extra in the list of md5sums I'd definately include it, now I'm more inclined to at least postpone this a bit. Thijs
