And if you mean by "propose" that I was to give a complete splitting strategy on what should go where, I naively thought the maintainer would know better than me anyway, but if asked I would propose one font family per package. If there are actions involved (mktexlsr etc.), I propose using an apt trigger. > a splitting that will be accepted upstream. Now here is a point I don't understand: What does upstream have to do with debian packages? I didn't suggest splitting the source package (which would probably be sensible, yes), but splitting the binary package "texlive-fonts-extra". There are undoubtedly many other packages that split the compiled output of their sources into smaller binary packages (e.g. when splitting into -data, -doc, -dev etc.) without needing written consent by upstream.
