Description:
Harmattan, named after the trade winds that blow during the dry season in West
Africa, is designed in a Warsh style to suit the needs of languages using the
Arabic script in West Africa.

Because the font style is specifically intended for West Africa, the character
set for this font is aimed at West African languages. Thus, Asia-specific
glyphs are not included.

One of SIL’s Non-Roman Script Initiative font families
https://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=Home

SIL is a specialist of rare human scripts and contributes its expertise to the
Unicode consortium. The objective is to get 100% of SIL’s font catalog in
Fedora to improve our i18n coverage.

Due to $#@= variations on how SIL publishes its fonts, the spec uses some
SIL-specific macros to hide those variations and limit the changes between the
specs of SIL fonts.



The packaging conforms to https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/issue/935
as approved by FPC on 2020-02-13.

It is one of the test packages that were used to refine the new packaging
guidelines
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/nim/fonts-rpm-macros/

The new fonts packaging build chain is now live in koji. For example:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1468243

If the review is fast enough the package may make the FC32 100% Code Complete
