Here are all the fonts in Debian:
http://www.miriamruiz.es/debfonts/

And here are the fonts FoF use:
http://miriamruiz.es/fof/

international.ttf is Vera (
http://www.miriamruiz.es/debfonts/fnt-785d2fd45984c6548763ae6702d83e20.html ),
so we just have to depend on that package and replacing the font by a simbolic
link.

The other two fonts:

http://miriamruiz.es/fof/default.png

Are much more difficult to replace, as there is not anyone like that inside
Debian.

It's hard to know exactly which font it is, who owns the copyright or what the
license is, but I guess it might not be DFSG-free. 

Whatever font we decide to use, it won'T be really very similar to the
original ones, but I cannot think of anything better.

Do we know if we can consider the tutorial as not being a song? if it's not a
song, and the authors license it as DFSG-free, that would be enough for the
moment. We might put FoF in main and tell people to get the songs from
whenever they want, as they do with .AVIs, .MP3s or .SWFs. We could even
consider putting the rest of the songs in non-free, but it's not inmediate
how. The most important thing for me right now is putting the program in main.

BTW, my latest trial of the program showed me an error, as it seems FoF is
trying to use amanith, do you get the same error too? We should ask upstream
if they changed something.
