[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#506688: Bug#506688: ttf-liberation: Please include the sources of the fonts

But, why the hell do they not include this in the distributed
tarball?

That will make the packaging work much more painful as we would have
to manually add the *.sfd and Makefile files to the .ori.tar.gz
tarball and therefore derive the upstream version numbering. Weird.

I think we should report the lack of source as a bug against the
upstream tarballs, in upstream's BTS.
