Description James Taylor 2014-11-01 04:07:42 UTC 
Just noticed the version bump for figlet-2.2.5 dropped the contributed and ms-dos tarballs. I was able to manually install them myself, but would love a more elegant solution. Perhaps USE flags could be created to install them?

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-11-02 23:38:13 UTC 
They were dropped because of licensing issues.
Comment 2 James Taylor 2014-11-03 04:11:09 UTC 
Ah, that makes sense. Would there be any way around it? I'm perfectly happy to manually install them myself, anyway :)
Comment 3 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-11-03 05:17:00 UTC 
There could be a fetch-restricted, non-mirrored-source figlet-extra package but that's getting so close to manual install that I'm not sure it's worth it.
