[Bug 958345] Re: ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated

 

$ syncpackage fonts-beng
syncpackage: Error: Source package fonts-beng is blacklisted.
syncpackage: If this package needs a fakesync, use --fakesync
syncpackage: If you think this package shouldn't be blacklisted, please file a bug
syncpackage: explaining your reasoning and subscribe ~ubuntu-archive.
syncpackage: Blacklist Comments:
syncpackage:   From sync-blacklist.txt:
syncpackage:   # cjwatson, 2012-06-01
syncpackage:   # Temporary blacklist entries for quantal, requiring manual resolution
syncpackage:   due
syncpackage:   # to conflicts with existing Ubuntu-versioned binaries.
syncpackage:   alsa-base
syncpackage:   fonts-beng

I don't know why these are blacklisted but it seems to me they should
not be. Subscribed ~ubuntu-archive to do this.

fonts-deva, fonts-gujr, fonts-guru, fonts-knda, fonts-mlym, fonts-orya,
fonts-pagul, fonts-taml, fonts-telu may also be blacklisted (haven't
checked).

Title:
  ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated

Status in ttf-indic-fonts package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The Debian fonts team recently restructured the indic fonts. ttf-indic-fonts changed to fonts-indic. This is meta package and all packages ttf-[language]-fonts renamed to fonts-[script/foundry]. In addition to this all fonts were updated to latest versions from upstreams. 
  I request ubuntu maintainers to update the fonts to latest versions and consider following the debian package naming changes for fonts.

  Refer: http://packages.debian.org/sid/fonts-indic
