--- Comment #24 from Nicolas Mailhot <[email protected]> --- No, because bpg-dejavu-sans-fonts is not a complete fork of dejavu, it is missing other parts. Also, bpg-dejavu-sans-fonts is quite shaky legal-wise, the Georgian dev is completely clueless about licensing, I’m not sure its GPL use is compatible with the licensing in the other parts of dejavu, and even if it is, there are good reason we are not using the GPL for font files (it would make documents, that embed font parts, such as ODF or PDF, GPL, which is definitely not what our users need). We really need someone to revive the upstream dejavu project and restart merging fixes and enhancements, since the original authors lost the drive. (Can’t really blame them when downstreams like Fedora Workstation removed DejaVu as default font just because it was steady and “boring”). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ fonts-bugs mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
