Package: fonts-osifont
Version: 0.1.20230322+ds-3
Severity: wishlist

FreeCAD is using osifont-lgpl3fe.ttf (and osifont-italic.ttf), it would be great if I could use
the packaged version for both fonts.

TIA!

FreeCAD is looking for the filename: 
https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/freecad/-/blob/debian/unstable/src/Mod/TechDraw/Gui/AppTechDrawGui.cpp?ref_type=heads#L90

said that, I'm going to symlink from the FreeCAD expected name to the
name in the package, so this bug is fixed for my needs and I'll close it
with this mail.
