Hi all,
WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT
On 2020-02-13, FPC approved a rewrite of our fonts packaging guidelines.
STATUS
✅ Published https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/FontsPolicy/ (grammar fixes welcome as a PR)
✅ Fedora 33 and next
✅ Fedora 32 (before freeze deadline)
✅ Fedora 31 (as update)
Infrastructure work is now finished and I won’t post new updates before the Fedora 34 compatibility cutover.
COMPATIBILITY
New conforming packages can now be published from Fedora 31, upwards.
Existing packages should be converted from Fedora 33, upwards. Do not convert packages within a stable release without extra checking, please.
Starting with Fedora 34, existing packages will fail rebuild (removal of compatibility glue). Use the Fedora 32 and 33 cycles to convert.
NEW PACKAGES STILL PENDING REVIEW
