I am not sure if I understand. The package .deb built from dsc
does not include the fonts/VeraMono.ttf. The package .deb will 
reclaim as dependence the ttf-bitstream-vera Debian package,
which brings the fonts/VeraMono.ttf. Or do you mean about the 
source tar.gz file?. If it should not have a copy of that font,
then I would be modifying the original sources from upstream to
have another tar.gz source right?. Is that okey to do?

Thanks in advance,
Rafa
