Title:
  [nc] Technical: Set NAME.License-*. The fonts do not contain License
  or License URL in the TTF Names

Status in Ubuntu Font Family:
  In Progress
Status in fonts-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  0. sudo apt-get install lcdf-typetools
  1. cd /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-family # or equivalent if testing an unpackaged font
  2. otfinfo --info Ubuntu-R.ttf | grep 'License\|Copyright'

  What you see:
  Copyright:           Copyright 2011 Canonical Ltd.  Licensed under the Ubuntu Font Licence 1.0

  What you should see:
  Copyright:           Copyright 2010-2015 Canonical Ltd.
  License Description: Ubuntu Font Licence 1.0
  License Info URL:    http://font.ubuntu.com/ufl/ubuntu-font-licence-1.0.txt
  ____________

  The font package includes a LICENCE.txt, and each font file bears the
  Copyright: Copyright 2010 Canonical Ltd.  Licensed under the Ubuntu
  Font Licence 1.0.

  In addition, the font files should include values for the TTF Names
  for License Description and License Info URL. At minimum I recommend
  that these values be set to:

  License Description: Ubuntu Font Licence 1.0
  License Info URL: http://font.ubuntu.com/ufl/ubuntu-font-licence-1.0.txt
