Description:
Release 3 of Frank Wen's pro-quality GM/GS soundfont. The soundfont has lots of
excellent samples, including all the GM instruments along side with the GS
instruments that are recycled and reprogrammed versions of the GM presets.
rpmlint is silent.
Since we have only one soundfont for the entire distribution (which is also
nonfree), I want to include this free soundfont in Fedora. In my opinion, it is
nicer than PersonalCopy-Lite-soundfont.
As I explained in the SPEC file, the upstream tarball has the soundfont only in
sfArk format, which had to be converted to linux-friendly sf2 format by a
non-free software. Debian folks already did this and we are borrowing their
ready-to-go tarball.
This soundfont is 9 years old. Originally it didn't specify a license, although
the README file inside the original tarball always said that "this is free".
The author licensed this soundfont under MIT recently.
Here is the story of when&how this soundfont received the MIT license and it
got debianized.
