Now as you said its not working then we need to check the log files. E.g. see https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hughsie/createrepo_as_logs/master/u/urw-base35-bookman-fonts.log which shows some warning. So this need to be fixed. e.g. one of the file I checked upstream https://github.com/ArtifexSoftware/urw-base35-fonts/blob/master/appstream/de.urwpp.URWBookman.metainfo.xml#L25 and can see missing </p> tag Good to follow fonts spec templates from https://pagure.io/fontpackages/blob/master/f/spec-templates/spectemplate-fonts-simple.spec#_49 which tells to use appstream-util on metainfo files to check them for syntax validity.
