You can then distribute the font source tarball and the source for any other GPL software in separate tarballs, alongside any binary packages for Windows or macOS. If you aren't distributing any binary packages you wouldn't need to distribute any extra source tarballs. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Bug#851113: manaplus: violates font license
Source: manaplus Version: 1.7.1.7-1 Severity: serious User: pkg-fonts-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: license-violation X-Debbugs-CC: pkg-fonts-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org Your source package contains an GPL/LGPL font: data/fonts/liberationsans.ttf data/fonts/liberationsansmono.ttf data/fonts/liberationsans-bold.ttf data/fonts/liberationsansmono-bold.ttf This looks to be from here: https://fedorahosted.org/liberation-fonts/ The font's source code appears to be here: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/liberation-fonts.git/tree/src Your source package does not contain the font source code, therefore your distribution of the font constitutes a violation of the license. Please notify your upstream that they are violating the font license. Please remove the font from the source package and build-depend or depend on the fonts-liberation binary font package instead. Please contact your upstream and ask them to use fontconfig or similar to get fonts for use by the software instead of using a specific font.
