[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#622149: lintian: false positive: font-in-non-font-package in fonts-* package
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.0~rc2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The Debian Fonts Task Force have agreed to name font packages using the
following naming scheme: fonts-<foundry>-<name>
Yet, lintian gives a font-in-non-font-package when it finds a font in
packages with that naming scheme.
Attached is a patch to fix this issue.
