Thanks for your reply. However, there is a slight difference in
situation you describe. I am referring to an installation of Tex Live
with via its own installer. If you would change the dependency to
recommended or suggested, all users will still install it, but have the
freedom to uninstall
Sorry, my understanding of Debian Policy and its spirit is that it is
wrong for there to be multiple copies of the same font in Debian (or
Ubuntu). Since birdfont needs Roboto, it needs to depend on the existing
fonts-roboto package instead of shipping yet another copy of Roboto.
Therefore, I am
There are hundreds of font files that have overlap. TeX Live will not
remove all their fonts, so there must be a way to have it coexist and
have flexibility on installation and deinstallation of fonts.
For most of these fonts the user is free to choose what to do via
package management. Only a
It sounds like TeXlive issue that has multiple fonts, not birdfont.
It'd be better to send bug to texlive package in Debian BTS (NOT launchpad)
and fix it, since root cause would not be fixed even if birdfont doesn't pull
fonts-roboto.
It would be better to change birdfont to use other fonts as
If one has installed TeX Live on Debian or Ubuntu, you have multiple
font files for Roboto (and otehr packages). These are all found by font-
config and that causes conflicts. the end-user does not always know
which font files are being used.
One solution is to deinstall the Roboto package from
No, please do NOT include ttf in birdfont.
>TeX Live is not going to be packaged any time soon for Ubuntu or Debian
:( There are no people that have time to do that. Which results in these
kind of problems.
No, Nobert works for TeXlive for both upstream and Debian.
I don't get what is wrong

Roboto is now a part of the BirdFont source package and the dependency
on the font-roboto deb can be dropped in the next release.

I will put Roboto in BirdFonts own folder and avoid installing it as a
system font in order to make sure that there are no conflicts with
other versions of the font.

TeX Live is not going to be packaged any time soon for Ubuntu or Debian
:( There are no people that have time to do that. Which results in these
kind of problems. So waiting for that is not an issue.
Shipping the TTF is also not a good solution as again users might get
font conflicts and/or you
It might be possible to include the TTF file in the source package and
skip the roboto deb but I would like to see a solution where TeX Live
and the regular packaging system plays well together. Maybe I am
wishing to much.

Are there other ways to loosen this requirement? This is for cases that
Roboto is available but from TeX Live. As Ubuntu is behind with
packaging that, it is an Ubuntu issue too.
But suppose a system does not have Roboto, could it be a feature request
that the user chooses another font? For
The birdfont UI uses roboto and it will not work without it.
