Public bug reported:

FontForge is now being developed on github, so the homepage for the
package should be updated to http://fontforge.github.io/ and the new
repo is at https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/ . From the name of
the files, the version in Wily is patched code from 2012, which is
rather old. Simply updating to the newer code may fix a number of other
bugs reported against the FontForge package as well, as there have been
numerous bug fixes in the interim.
