Hello Holger,
Sorry, I mean "Please include the sources of the fonts in the _source_
package".
The source package[2] contains *.ttf files only, but at the home
page, the upstrimer[0] provides *.sfd files as the source of the
fonts, and the makefile to build them.
By example the LiberationMono-Bold.sfd is the source of
LiberationMono-Bold.ttf, but that file isn't in the source package.
At this moment the source package of ttf-liberation[1] contains:
AUTHORS
License.txt
ChangeLog
README
COPYING
LiberationMono-BoldItalic.ttf
LiberationMono-Regular.ttf
LiberationSans-Italic.ttf
LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf
LiberationMono-Bold.ttf
LiberationSans-BoldItalic.ttf
LiberationSans-Regular.ttf
LiberationSerif-Italic.ttf
LiberationMono-Italic.ttf
LiberationSans-Bold.ttf
LiberationSerif-BoldItalic.ttf
LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf
I suggest to add[2] :
Makefile
src: -->
LiberationMono-Bold.ttf
LiberationMono-BoldItalic.sfd
...sdf
scripts: -->
sfd2ttf.pe
ttf2sfd.pe
Regards o/,
