Comment 2 Marek Szuba archtester gentoo-dev 2016-09-08 13:52:16 UTC
Upstream is gone. The font itself still seems to be available from various font-library sites but it is unclear what its licence is - some of those sites say it is fully freeware, some agree with the ebuild that it is free for non-commercial use only. However, the main question is - is there still user demand for adding this font to Portage?
