Bug#628812: [Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#628812: RFP: ttf-abattis-cantarell -- Cantarell sans font

Quoting Daniel Glassey (dglas...@gmail.com):
 Package: wnpp
 Severity: wishlist

We should probably target fonts-abattis-cantarell as package name as
per our recent-but-yet-to-be-published fonts packaging policy. Or
maybe even fonts-cantarell if the foundry makes less sense.


 Homepage: http://abattis.org/cantarell/
 License: SIL Open Font Licence v1.1.
 
 it is the open font used by Gnome 3 and the source is developed in gnome git
 http://git.gnome.org/browse/cantarell-fonts/tree


I haven't found a released tarball for the font source. One can
indeed download an non-versioned ZIP file with only TTF files, but I
think it would be worth having the package building TTF and OTF files
from source.

I think we really should ping GNOME upstream again about resolution of
these upstream bugs before packaging:
