Hello Rinzwind, or anyone else affected,
Accepted gnome-font-viewer into xenial-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-font-
viewer/3.16.2-1ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.
Please help us by testing this
Thank you. I have the right permissions now and uploaded this to
xenial's unapproved queue.
