Package: gem Severity: serious Justification: contains arial.ttf, which is not distributable
The gem package contains /usr/lib/pd/doc/gem/05.text/arial.ttf, which
has this embedded copyright information:
Typeface © The Monotype Corporation plc. Data © The Monotype Corporation
plc/Type Solutions Inc. 1990-1992. All Rights Reserved
Please:
* remove it from the gem package and the equivalent file from the
source package.
* inform upstream that they should not be distributing the two
copies of Arial, except as arial32.exe
* http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/faq8.htm
* http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/eula.htm
* if arial.ttf is required:
* depend on msttcorefonts
* make the programs check that Arial/etc are available
when starting
* move the package to contrib
* otherwise suggest a free font - bitstream vera for example
I also notice that the source package contains Courier New and Times New
Roman, with the same issues.
