> Programming Lang: fonts
> Description : Set of the 35 PostScript Language Level 2 Base Fonts
> A commercial-quality set of the basic 35 PostScript Type 1 fonts.
> Each font includes .pfb (outlines), .afm (metrics), and .pfm (Windows printer
> metrics) files. The fonts are compatible with general Type 1 manipulation
> tools as well as with Ghostscript.

> This package will contain an updated set of the 35 PostScript base fonts, that

> Ghostscript, and is already shipped as part of ghostscript 9.09. It is intended
> to replace the gsfonts package, which contains a fork of an ancient version of
> these fonts with added cyrilic glyphs. However, that fork is long unmaintained
> upstream and the glyphs are of reportedly questionable quality, which I cannot
> judge for myself, though. The package will also integrate the effort to make
> the fonts available to an X server and thus replace the gsfonts-x11 package.
> Finally, I am going to convince the texlive maintainers to replace their copy
> of these fonts in the texlive-fonts-recommended package (used for the psnfss
> latex-package) with this pristine release. All corresponsing package
> maintainers are in CC.

> I am going to maintain this package under the umbrella of the pkg-fonts team.
> The license for the fonts used to be GPL, but a corresponding note has
> apparently been forgotten in the current release. This issue is reported as
> #720906 in Debian (against the ghostscript package, which already ships an
> updated version of these fonts, but not yet this latest update) and has been
> brought to the attention of ghostscript upstream who will strive for
> clarification with URW++ in the short term.
GPL strait or GPL with font exception?
