= Proposed Self Contained Change: Lohit Odia Gurumukhi font naming = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Lohit_Odia_Gurumukhi Change owner(s): Pravin Satpute <psatpute@xxxxxxxxxx> This is a change to make Lohit Oriya fonts name as per the guidelines by Odisha governement and improve Lohit Punjabi font name to avoid confusion between Arabic and Gurumukhi script fonts. It will change Lohit Oriya fonts to Lohit Odia and Lohit Punjabi to Lohit Gurumukhi. == Detailed description == Lohit fonts upstream is going to change two fonts name. Font name changes and detailed information is as follows Lohit Oriya to Lohit Odia: Odia language name was improperly translated and written as a Oriya. This has been corrected by Government of India in 2011 and it is called as a Odia now. Reference for same [1]. Discussion regarding same happened in Lohit fonts upstream [2] and it has been decided to change Lohit Oriya fonts name to Lohit Odia. Lohit Punjabi to Lohit Gurumukhi: Punjabi is a language and written by two script Arabic and Gurumukhi. Generic font name like Punjabi often create confusion whether this font is belonged to writing Punjabi in Arabic script or Gurumukhi script. It has become important to change font name from Lohit Punjabi to Lohit Gurumukhi. Lohit upstream has already accepted this change [3] and looks will release fonts with this name. == Scope == Developers need to accomplish following things. * Upstream release with proposed font name changes. * New package request with corrected font names in upstream in Fedora by obsoleting existing packages. * Notifying Anaconda and Libreoffice langpacks to install renamed packages. Proposal owners: * Working in upstream for release with names * new package request. * notifying package using Lohit fonts for updating it. Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Anaconda need to update default fonts installation list. * Libreoffice lang pack requires need to change. Release engineering: No, mass rebuild required. Policies and guidelines: No change in policies and guideline. Change Wrangler note: a wider coordination is required for this Change but the scope is limited and will be covered by Change Owner.
