By the way... does anybody know _why_ it's got this slightly
inconvenient name? Presumably it's an Object Oriented Toolkit, but
what does the R stand for?

I would also rephrase this paragraph, mostly to avoid "use them for
your own use":
You are free to download these fonts and use them for your own purposes,
but you have no permission to redistribute them in modified form, including
changes to the file name or packaging format.

It could do with being less waffly. Splitting it helps, but how
about:
The ROOT system provides a set of OO frameworks with all the
functionality needed to handle and analyze large amounts of data
efficiently.
.
With the data defined as a set of objects, specialized storage methods
can give direct access to the separate attributes of the selected
objects, without having to touch the bulk of the data.
(en_US "analyze", "specialized", and so on.) Then in the next para:

Straighten out some of that syntactic plumbing.
The command language, the scripting (or macro) language, and the
programming language are all C++, thanks to the built-in CINT C++
interpreter. This interpreter removes the time consuming compile/link
cycle, allowing for fast prototyping of the macros, and providing a
good environment to learn C++. [...]

"This font files"? Tell you what, make it:
This package will install the TrueType Fonts (TTF) used by ROOT.
These fonts are provided by Microsoft under a license that restricts
redistribution. This package will download the fonts from the ROOT

Description: metapackage to install all ROOT packages
The ROOT system provides a set of OO frameworks with all the
functionality needed to handle and analyze large amounts of data
efficiently.
.
With the data defined as a set of objects, specialized storage methods
can give direct access to the separate attributes of the selected
objects, without having to touch the bulk of the data. Included are
histograming methods in 1, 2 and 3 dimensions, curve fitting, function
evaluation, minimization, graphics and visualization classes to allow the
easy creation of an analysis system that can query and process the data
interactively or in batch mode.
.
The command language, the scripting (or macro) language, and the
programming language are all C++, thanks to the built-in CINT C++
interpreter. This interpreter removes the time consuming compile/link
cycle, allowing for fast prototyping of the macros, and providing a
good environment to learn C++. If more performance is needed, the
interactively developed macros can be compiled using a C++ compiler.
.
The system has been designed in such a way that it can query its
databases in parallel on MPP machines or on clusters of workstations
or high-end PCs. ROOT is an open system that can be dynamically
extended by linking external libraries. This makes ROOT a premier
platform on which to build data acquisition, simulation and data
analysis systems.
.
This package is a metapackage to ensure the installation of all
possible ROOT packages on a system.

This package contains the runtime library for the UNURAN plugin
for ROOT. This provides universal (also called automatic or black-box)
algorithms that can generate random numbers from large classes of
continuous or discrete distributions, and also from practically all
standard distributions.
.
To generate random numbers the user must supply some information
about the desired distribution, especially a C-function that computes
the density and - depending on the chosen methods - some additional
information (such as the borders of the domain, the mode, and the
derivative of the density). After a user has given this information,
an init-program computes all tables and constants necessary for the
random variate generation. The sample program can then generate
variates from the desired distribution.
