Salaam, Upon building an rpm for the khotot project, I found two issues which I would like to share:
1. I got many unknown font foundry issues: $ ttmkfdir -u . unknown font foundry code PYRS unknown font foundry code PYRS ... * This problem also happen with farsi fonts as: unknown font foundry code SHFW unknown font foundry code SHFW 2. Another issue with arabeyes fonts is its name The standard in naming packages (not libs) is to use a dash not an underscore between the name and the version, hence it's better to chane ae_fonts1_ttf_1.1 to ae_fonts_ttf-1.1 at a minimum Better to be fonts-ttf-arabic-arabeyes-1.1 to match the packages we are going to build. The fonts name has better to begin with ae for space reasons but the package has better to have the full arabeyes name. Mr. Pablo of Mandrake suggests fonts-ttf-arabic-arabeyes as the package name and agrees to include the arabic fonts as separate packages. For the farsi fonts (I am cc'ing Roozbeh), I suggest the same naming fonts-ttf-arabic-farsi and to change the source .zip to .bz2. This may seem cosmetic but it helps on the source tag of the spec file. -- Munzir Taha PGP Key available gpg --recv-keys --keyserver www.mandrakesecure.net F0671821 Telecommunications and Electronics Engineer Linux Registered User #279362 at http://counter.li.org Mandrake Club member Maintainer of the Open Arabic Bugs Project at http://wiki.arabeyes.org/OpenBugs CIW Designer, ICDL, MOUS New Horizons CLC Riyadh, SA _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
