I'm not getting any error with --verbose and --local-filename, but I'm not seeing a font preview either (f23).

I would like to create a gdouros-textfonts metapackage (for Anaktoria, Alexander, Aroania, Asea & Avdira) and it could be the one providing the documentation. Would that have to go through a new package review? Information regarding metapackages is scarce on the wiki. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

By running gnome-software --verbose I found that it cannot find some pixmap... I tried to provide it, by copying from some other font package to a different name, but for some reason this wouldn't work.

I think using a generic name like that makes it obvious that this documentation is not tied to any of the font packages, but is shared. You could create a separate package, but I don't see the point. For users it doesn't matter if the file comes from a separate package or from a subpackage, and it is quite a bit of work to create (and then regularly update) an extra package. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The linked source rpm is from a successful scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=12955667 I have also created a wiki page for the font: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Gdouros_Avdira_fonts ttfcoverage reports the following about the font: Alphabetic Presentation Forms: 7/80 (8.75%) Ancient Greek Musical Notation: 70/80 (87.50%) Ancient Greek Numbers: 77/80 (96.25%) Ancient Symbols: 12/64 (18.75%) Arrows: 7/112 (6.25%) Basic Latin: 97/128 (75.78%) Block Elements: 8/32 (25.00%) Box Drawing: 40/128 (31.25%) Byzantine Musical Symbols: 246/256 (96.09%) Combining Diacritical Marks: 41/112 (36.61%) Combining Diacritical Marks Supplement: 4/64 (6.25%) Combining Half Marks: 4/16 (25.00%) Currency Symbols: 23/48 (47.92%) Cyrillic: 106/256 (41.41%) Dingbats: 16/192 (8.33%) General Punctuation: 65/112 (58.04%) Geometric Shapes: 20/96 (20.83%) Greek Extended: 233/256 (91.02%) Greek and Coptic: 121/144 (84.03%) IPA Extensions: 96/96 (100.00%) Latin Extended Additional: 19/256 (7.42%) Latin Extended-A: 128/128 (100.00%) Latin Extended-B: 27/208 (12.98%) Latin Extended-C: 1/32 (3.12%) Latin-1 Supplement: 96/128 (75.00%) Letterlike Symbols: 8/80 (10.00%) Mathematical Operators: 25/256 (9.77%) Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A: 9/48 (18.75%) Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B: 1/128 (0.78%) Miscellaneous Symbols: 21/256 (8.20%) Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows: 1/256 (0.39%) Miscellaneous Technical: 18/256 (7.03%) Number Forms: 16/64 (25.00%) Spacing Modifier Letters: 13/80 (16.25%) Specials: 2/16 (12.50%) Superscripts and Subscripts: 29/48 (60.42%) Supplemental Punctuation: 35/128 (27.34%) Supplementary Private Use Area-A: 98/65536 (0.15%) Variation Selectors: 4/16 (25.00%) PS1: A user had messed with the new font template in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Font_description_template and I reverted their changes. Could someone please check that everything is as it should be? PS2: Once this font is accepted, could someone point me in the right direction for making a group or a metapackage to install all of the "TextFonts" together? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
