Description Thomas Fischer 2010-10-11 07:25:10 UTC
Attached is an ebuild for the four new fonts Canonical contributed to Ubuntu and which are e.g. used in the updated Ubuntu logo. The fonts are well-hinted for on-screen use.
The fonts come with their own license ("Ubuntu font license") which allows one to "use, study, modify, and redistribute freely" those fonts.
I will commit this ebuild to the sunrise overlay soon.

Reproducible: Always

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Markos.
