Hi Akira
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/nim/fonts-rpm-macros/builds/
showcases the new policy on 62 real-world source packages, generating
139 installation packages. Some of those are badly delayed updates to
Fedora packages, others are brand-new packages ready for Fedora
inclusion. They include major font packages such as Stix, DejaVu,
Droid,
IBM Plex.
That would probably be better covering all of the default fonts at
least so we don't see any regressions by this major updates on the
policy.
Well I think I did my part here:) the copr covers all the font packages
I maintain, and adds support for all the SIL and GFS fonts we had not
packaged yet, and some more (like Plex).
I don't have the time and energy to repackage everything by myself, and
anyway that would not demonstrate that the new macros and guidelines are
usable by anyone but myself (so, really, not so useful).
I think the copr demonstrates that the technical implementation works,
on a huge and diverse pool of real-world font projects.
I spent a *huge* amount of time making those specs conform to the
proposed packaging templates, dotting i's, slashing t's, going back to
the drawing board any time the templates didn’t work out in practice,
automating things that wasted my time as a packager.
You can diff the guideline examples, the templates, and the implemented
specs you'll see they are all identical, and can all serve as packaging
examples
