xavierb commented on the pull-request: `Use NimbusSans-Bold font for afm font metrics testing` that you are following: `` Wouldn't it be better to BR: the package providing the file rather than the file itself ? `BuildRequires: urw-base35-nimbus-sans-fonts` rather than `BuildRequires: %{_datadir}/fonts/urw-base35/NimbusSans-Bold.afm`
File requires are most costly to resolve than package requires and I'm not sure why this was a file requires in the first place.

corsepiu commented on the pull-request: `Use NimbusSans-Bold font for afm font metrics testing` that you are following: `` I do not agree with any of these patches and will not apply them
Rationale: I consider using package deps instead of file deps to be insane and not helpful.

xavierb commented on the pull-request: `Use NimbusSans-Bold font for afm font metrics testing` that you are following: `` About the file dependency, here's the guideline: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_file_and_directo... This is a SHOULD NOT, not a MUST NOT, but this guideline was the reason why I suggested to use a package dependency rather than a file dependency. Could you explain why you consider this to be insane and not helpful ?
Also, I'm not sure why you are objecting to the removal of the dependency on a2ps. You seem to agree to this removal in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1581656#c2 ``

zdohnal commented on the pull-request: `Use NimbusSans-Bold font for afm font metrics testing` that you are following: `` @corsepiu I'm willing to use a file dependency if it is required.
Please let me know if I should change something else.
I understand you want the best for your package as its maintainer and I truly thinks Font-AFM benefits from using NimbusSans-Bold instead of phvr, assuring font metric from Font-AFM works with the current fonts.
Thank you for reviewing the merge request and your work as a packager so far, Ralf! ``

zdohnal commented on the pull-request: `Use NimbusSans-Bold font for afm font metrics testing` that you are following: `` @corsepiu I'll wait with changing PR till you and Xavier finish the discussion.
In my humble opinion I prefer a package dependency too - it will clearly tell the spec file reader what package you bring into buildroot/system.
However, you are the package maintainer, I'm willing to change the PR as you see fit. ``
