The big difference here is "free for commercial use" is not the same as "free to distribute a slightly modified copy" That is because these sites are mostly targeting designers who want to use these fonts in either print or web banners and don't plan to distribute the actual font files. Where as open source distro's mostly care about there users being able to use and modify there sources without having legal issues the "TeX Gyre fonts" mentioned above may well need a special exemption and to go into the non_free repo in the openSUSE case. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
