As you said, it is already possible to install the (newer) fonts in
/usr/local.

As I prefer to not remove files from upstream distributions, I'll be
marking this as 'wontfix' here.  Feel free to discuss this directly with
the upstream developer.  Note that upstream includes the fonts
directly while we add a dependency on the font package and just include
a symlink.
