Hmm. I think if you couldn't use the system copy for those technical
reasons... well, there is a nasty way to do it with triggers to handle
copying, but I'm not sure I can recommend that in good conscience.

You could simply copy the font in a %post scriptlet, but if it ever got
updated, you'd be using an old copy. If you copy it from BuildRequires,
it would only get updated on new builds, but I think that method might
be the simplest. You'd need to ask for a bundling request, but I'm
pretty sure I'd support it.

Hm... unless there is more input on this I'll go for the BuildRequires + bundling exception. This will take some time, have some fonts to package.

There will probably be more of this, fedora-review is updated with a new test looking for bundled font files.My gut feeling is also that there are some other bundled fonts in existing packages...

Thanks again!
