Hi,
I would like to propose adding the following text to our "Package Naming Guidelines". http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines
''' == Fonts Packages ==
Font packages should be named with the upstream name appended with `-fonts`.
Examples: {{{ bitmap-fonts dejavu-lgc-fonts ghostscript-fonts urw-fonts xorg-x11-fonts }}}
'''
Should the text discuss what to do when the upstream name contains the word "font" already?
See https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-maintainers/2007-February/msg00794.ht... and https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-maintainers/2007-March/msg00262.html for some recent discussion of <upstreamname>-fonts vs fonts-<language> and "-fonts" vs "-font" for singlet font packages.
Comments or objections?
Jens
ps We might even consider renaming some of our "fonts-*" packages to follow this naming scheme for F8.
