Hello. I'm packaging adesklets stuff, and it cames with Vera.ttf font included. We've got this font in ttf-bitstream-vera package, so I was wondering if is it ok to duplicate it, since some packages are doing it already.
At least that's something what I got after `apt-file search Vera.ttf`. wesnoth-data and epplets are not a case cause they using symlink to the font from ttf-bitstream-vera and depend on it. But widelands-data has its own copy. In addition its copyright file doesn't mention about different license for this font than for the rest of package. I assume that symlink is a good way (tm) for such situations, and that widelands is buggy, but I'm here to ensure myself and maybe others ;) Also maybe writing some script for finding such duplicates would be reasonable, it could in addition finds conflicting files in other packages, but that's only idea ;) regards fEnIo -- ,''`.
