Package: src:fonts-cardo
Version: 1.04-3
Severity: serious
Dear maintainer of fonts-cardo,
this package is affected by two licensing issues:
1) RFN: The file is licensed under OFL-1.1 with the Reserved Font Name
clause. However the RFN "Cardo" is used in Debian, although the font is
modified during the build process. FAQ 5.9 of SIL states that modified
fonts cannot use the RFN and must be renamed.
2) NO SOURCES: The font files are not built from the font sources
("preferred form of modification"). d/rules decompiles the TTF files,
patches them, and rebuilds them again. According to the manual «Cardo is
produced using FontLab Studio 5» so the original sources are probably in
the proprietary VFB format (for which there are converters to more open
formats).
Could you please contact the upstream author to integrate the patches
shipped by the Debian package (RFN) and to release the source?
Regards,
