Please unblock unifont-1:5.1.20080820-1



Please consider unblocking unifont-1:5.1.20080820-1, currently in
unstable.  It fixes RC bug #495729, just discovered last week.  That
bug is related to a DFSG issue with the entire Hangul Syllables block
of 11,172 glyphs (syllables) that affects all previous versions of
this package.  I uploaded the new version right before the previous
version was moved into testing.

I think it is safe to migrate unifont-1:5.1.20080820-1 to testing for
lenny, given that all that was changed was a block of glyphs and some
documentation.  The version in unstable has built on all
architectures.

This bug also affects GRUB, and has been cloned by Robert Millan as RC
bug #496061.

I am enclosing a debdiff file, edited in three places only to remove 2
* 11,172 lines where the old block of glyphs was removed and the new
block added.  Those locations are marked "[DELETED 2 * 11172 LINES]".
