            Bug ID: 1648825
           Summary: Split and update smc-fonts to match upstream release

           Version: rawhide

Description of problem:
We haven't updated smc-fonts in 4 years in Fedora. A lot of updates and fixes
were made and a new font was added by upstream in the meantime. With that, a
lot of discussions on how to manage the releases of fonts also took place,
because by then each font was being updated differently and was getting a
different version number.

Upstream moved to Gitlab instead of Savannah and each font with its own version
number is hosted in individual repository now, see
https://gitlab.com/smc/fonts. Fedora can no longer depend on the existing
packaging mechanism of single tarball and single makefile, as some fonts use
different build tools (e.g. Manjari uses UFO+Fontmake) as well.

I've discussed with pravins and he suggests to split the fonts and open a bug
for that.
