I've packaged xfonts-knickers, the knickers pcf font created by Tom Gilbert. Before I upload it I wanted to ask for some advise about whether it is right to package a single font.
I noticed nexus is already there, so either that's the right thing to do or it isn't, unfortunately I'm not qualified to say which. :) One one hand, I can see how having seperate .debs would be nice, I could apt-cache search knickers, then install it without maybe getting a bunch of other fonts I wasn't necessarily looking for at that time. On the other hand, a package for a single font is a waste of packaging space. I've done some searching for a font collection candidate to add it to, but the only thing I saw was freefont, but that is in non-free.. :) Maybe a free one needs to be started? I'd be happy to put this together if it would be beneficial to debian. Or maybe merge nexus and knickers, and possibly some other fonts that are floating around out there into a single package? Any thoughts on this issue? Thanks, Jon -- Jon Bernard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP Key ID: 0x5912C27E http://cs.roanoke.edu/~jbernard
