Created attachment 599338 [details] Licenses found in the package's tarball The ebuild has LICENSE="freedist", but this doesn't seem to apply to all fonts included with the collection. See attached list of licenses (which is no fun to read). Some have a non-commercial restriction, some don't grant any permissions at all, or their language is so vague that it isn't clear what the permissions are. freefonts-0.10.lsm says this: Copying-policy: Varies, but all are usable without charge So, LICENSE="freedist free-noncomm all-rights-reserved" would be a better approximation, and of course mirror and bindist restrictions should be added, because some of the package's contents is not redistributable.
