Hi Ivan, Would you provide the zip version for Molot fonts? Fedora does not use rar files by default due to licensing issue: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Unrar
You can also include the metainfo.xml I provided you which will be useful for easy installation.
P.S.: I ccd to the Fedora Fonts Special Interest Group should you look for further information.
Thank you in advance.

It would be best if the fonts were repacked with a different compressor. Especially that newer compressors get much better compression ratios. Nevertheless, this does not stop you from packaging them for Fedora: you just have to unpack and repack them yourself, and upload the repacked tarball as your sources.

Would you list which compressor suits well to font packaging? Zip is fairly common as far as I know and cross-platform. Should new compressors are better, it will be nice to document them so future font packagers will provide the right formation.

fedora includes a unar, a free tool for unarchiving rar files

Good to hear that. I thought unrar was only packaged in rpmfusion repository.
Thanks for the info.
