Upstream is a SRC_URI pig, so I piggypack off Debian

Comment 2 Peter Alfredsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-05 13:03:13 UTC
I've written to the Author of these fonts. Since their releases aren't locked to each other, I'm asking him to version his files. Then I'll probably do an ebuild for each font.

Upstream appears to be alive, the latest releases on the Web site are dated 07/2017. The question is, is there still user interest in adding these fonts to the tree? If there is, the easiest way of having it included is for an user to become its proxied maintainer and submit an ebuild for inclusion by our dedicated team [1], for instance as a pull request in the Gentoo repository on GitHub

On the other hand, if there is no user interest we shall close this ticket as WONTFIX in 30 days - although it can of course always be reopened if need be.
