Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev

The ebuild currently has LICENSE="as-is" which most likely is wrong.

The tarball contains several README and LICENSE files which are all in Japanese.
Please clarify under what terms this package can be distributed.

doc/ayu/README.txt: public domain

doc/kappa/README: public domain

doc/misaki/misakib8.txt:
  These fonts are free softwares.
  Unlimited permission is granted to use, copy, and
distribute it, with or without modification, either
commercially and noncommercially.

doc/mplus/LICENSE_J: ditto

doc/oradano/README.txt: 
You can distribute it with or without modification freely

Thanks.

I think we can summarise it as LICENSE="mplus-fonts public-domain".
