The package (and upstream) is missing copyright and license
information for all of the test fonts. Some of them contain no license
information, so it isn't clear that they are legal for Debian (and
upstream) to redistribute. There are no source files for any of them,
which could be a violation of DFSG item 2. Some of them are SIL OFL
licensed, with reserved font names, which means that modifying them is
a license violation unless you also rename them. Personally I would
remove the test fonts from the Debian source package.
