 Now I've updated it. see again at same URI.
 http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-fonts/packages/ttf-ipafont/debian/copyright?op=file&rev=0&sc=0

 and I don't change some legal jargon. Maybe it is less-meaning, but 
 it's better, I think.

  or a lawyer ;-)

 Yes, they say it in Japanese Katakana words, "デジタル・フォント・プログラム"
 so I'll use this "Program".

 (Can you see above Japanese words? if not, I would recommend you to 
  install ttf-vlgothic pacakge, haha :-)

 Okay, I'll use "Distinct" (and want to replace s/.../lovely kittens/g, 
 because I love cat rather than penguin :)
