(on http://subhodip.fedorapeople.org/Thabit-fonts-0.02-3.fc9.src.rpm) 1. Please rename package to arabeyes-thabit-fonts 2. You have a typo in Summary 3. Is upstream's URL http://www.arabeyes.org/ or http://www.arabeyes.org/project.php?proj=Khotot (as referenced in the README) ? 4. Is the description still ok for a Thabit-only package? 5. It's harmless, but a Source2 without Source1 is strange, especially on a new package 6. Please use normal %setup macro in your package. That will simplify the spec a lot (your complex manual unpacking was only necessary because you initially tried to stuff two fonts in a single package) 7. Since upstream uses fontforge for building, please ask upstream to publish sfd sources and build fedora fonts from those sources (we have many packages that do so, for example DejaVu, Liberation, Inconsolata, etc) 8. Some people want all Fedora-added source files in a package to be prefixed with the package name. You don't follow this convention for your fontconfig file. Please use %{name}-fontconfig.conf as suggested by http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/FontsSpecTemplate 9. I don't know if 65 is the right fontconfig priority for this font. You need to discuss it with Behdad (preferably CC-ing the fedora fonts list) 10. Please only declare thabit-related fontconfig rules in the fontconfig file shipped with the thabit package 11. You probably want a "Generic name" rule in addition to the "Registering a font in default families" rule in your fontconfig file → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fontconfig_packaging_tips#Generic_names This rule is used by fontconfig to complete your font with glyphs from other fonts when it encounters a codepoint your font is missing → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fontconfig_packaging_tips#Registering_a_fon... This rule is used by fontconfig to identify what fonts to use when an application requests a "cursive" font. 12. Please reformat your xml files with xmllint --format before submission so they are nicely indented with the same rules as other font packages 13. When you've written fontconfig rules you're happy with it's always a good idea to send them upstream to be included in the font next releases (in the versionned source archive you're supposed to request) 14. You can drop the -f flag to fc-cache for releases ≥ Fedora 9 15. OFL.txt mentions an IBM copyright. Please ask upstream to add a Fontlog.txt to their source release archive (as recommended by SIL for OFL fonts), that clearly identifies what other fonts were used to create this font, so Fedora Legal can check there is no problem 16. Please make sure all the steps up to 2.a (included) have been followed in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Font_package_lifecycle In particular we need a wiki page that describes the font to be added to the wiki (for release notes) Well that's a lot of stuff to fix and it's a pity the OLPC folks didn't do a full review before accepting this font package. I'm putting a "NEEDINFO reporter" on this bug and the Mothanna one (since it needs more or less the same fixes). Please remove this flag once you've fixed the previous points. Please don't hesitate to ask questions on the fedora fonts list if there are elements you need help with. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 467507] Review Request: Rufscript-fonts - Rufscripts is a decorative handwriting based font

by Red Hat Bugzilla

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467507 Nicolas Mailhot <nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flag| |fedora-review?, | |needinfo?(sundaram(a)redhat.c | |om) --- Comment #2 from Nicolas Mailhot <nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net> 2008-10-26 07:28:20 EDT --- 1. Since Minto Joseph and you are both packaging Hiran's fonts, you should get together and interact with Hiran collectively (see bug #457709). 2. It's not a good idea to keep the versioning in the TTF filename, some apps refer fonts by filename and will get cross with you if it changes every version 3. You should discuss with Minto if you want to adopt a common prefix for your font packages names (for example hiranv-rufscript-fonts and perizia-rufscript-fonts). We've more or less started to do it for big foundries (gfs, sil) and some individual font authors (thibault), it's probably better to generalise the convention to have consistent naming (please subscribe to the fonts SIG list if you haven't done so yet to get informed of packaging convention evolutions) 4. you can drop the -f in the fc-cache invocation for releases ≥ Fedora 9 → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/FontsSpecTemplate 5. Some people want all Fedora-added source files in a package to be prefixed with the package name. You don't follow this convention for your fontconfig file. Please take inspiration from the general packaging guidelines or Minto's package to fix it. → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/FontsSpecTemplate → bug #457709 6. 69 is a bit low, for a latin font like rufscript something between 62 and 64 would be fine → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fontconfig_packaging_tips#Simple_priority_l... 7. Please have upstream publish rufscript in a proper versioned archive with a detached license file you can add in %doc 8. Please reformat your xml files with xmllint --format before submission so they are nicely indented 9. I would have declared rufscript as a cursive font, not a sans-serif one 10. Please add a "Generic name" rule in addition to the "Registering a font in default families" rule → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fontconfig_packaging_tips#Generic_names This rule is used by fontconfig to complete your font with glyphs from other fonts when it encounters a codepoint your font is missing → http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fontconfig_packaging_tips#Registering_a_fon... This rule is used by fontconfig to identify what fonts to use when an application requests a "cursive" font. 11. When you've written fontconfig rules you're happy with it's always a good idea to send them upstream to be included in the font next releases (in the versionned archive you're supposed to request) Despite the long todo list your spec is in good shape overall and it should not take much to get it in a state that can be approved. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
