In all honesty, I'm not particularly anxious to create that metapackage. I thought that since Mr. Douros considers these fonts as a set, there might be others who would too. I'm actually happy to lay that thought to rest. Just out of curiosity though, how would such a metapackage complicate things? Wouldn't it work like the libreoffice metapackage which doesn't have to be installed in order to get some features of the suite? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If you want the fonts to be installed together by default, you can add Suggests or Recommends between the fonts. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If you do that you *must* make sure the individual font packages can still be installed separately without dragging in other stuff some users do not need. The Fedora fonts packaging policy is explicitly designed to permit fine-grained font installation, without locking users in specific font groups, to let users choose fonts on their individual merits. The font package naming already makes it easy to identify fonts of the same origin. A metapackage does not add a lot except hardwiring someone's preferencies. > Would that have to go through a new package review?

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1307238 --- Comment #8 from Alexander Ploumistos <alex.ploumistos(a)gmail.com> --- I have gnome-software-3.18.3-1.fc23.x86_64. When I load the rpm with --local-filename I don't get a preview. After the installation, gnome-software can not find it, but I don't get any error resembling yours (or any other error at all). At some point, I saw this: (org.gnome.Software:2851): As-WARNING **: failed to rescan: Failed to parse /usr/share/appdata/gdouros-avdira.metainfo.xml;56c9cb51 file: Error when getting information for file '/usr/share/appdata/gdouros-avdira.metainfo.xml;56c9cb51': No such file or directory but I was unable to trigger it again in subsequent runs. I've been seeing some of these (org.gnome.Software:2851): As-WARNING **: failed to rescan: No valid root node specified though they appear at random, so I don't suppose they could be related. I can uninstall it with dnf just fine. I thought there might be an issue with the fact that the package is unsigned, but other packages I've built and installed on my system appear in gnome-software, so it can't be that. $ appstream-util validate gdouros-avdira.metainfo.xml gdouros-avdira.metainfo.xml: OK I don't know what else to try. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
