Hello, Recently an effort has begun to the system infrastructure in fedora aware of each font shipped, and this shipment explicit mostly through subpackages http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Font_package_splitting_rules_(2008-12-21) Two of my packages are fonts primarily intended for LaTeX (tetex-font-kerkis and tetex-font-cm-lgc). The guidelines suggest splitting the package in the Type 1 font files and TeX-support files. The font-related part is mostly sorted out (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477461 ) The TeX-related part consists of files (.sty, .tfm, .ovf, etc) to support the use of these fonts in LaTeX. Now, the draft for font naming guidelines suggests the srpm name to changed from tetex-font-cm-lgc to ctan-cm-lgc-fonts (to which I agree). The reason for this email is the last line in the proposed table, where the TeX related subpackage is to be named ctan-cm-lgc-tex. I think this is inconsistent with the rest of the TeX world in fedora and would like some feedback as to what name would be preferable. My preference would be to put tex as a prefix and drop ctan as in tex-cm-lgc as it is rather obvious for TeX-related stuff; afterall we don't have many perl-cpan-perlmodule packages) What do other TeX packagers prefer? P.S. The only hint I found at existing guidelines is that the prefix tex- is preferable http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Addon_Packages_.28TeX.29 -- Sarantis -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
