There's also the more pressing concern that altering widths will lead to changed linebreaks and legacy documents, which can be huge problem (so we generally want to avoid this and treat instances as bugs). But most programs have some sort of font name mapping mechanism, so it doesn't matter at all how the font is called. This mechanism is already used to swap in free fonts in documents which refer to completely encumbered ones (which we cannot even distribute). But those technical possibilities also mean that license requirements about naming are totally and utterly pointless. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-legal-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
