I recently submitted some font packages (ancient scripts) to M17N. I think I did a mistake naming them as foo-fonts.
What's the police for package names? Was that naming scheme right?
I vaguely remember that there were some guidelines in Wiki, but in practice, we have no strict rule for it, so far.
Some packages are named as is, some are as *-fonts, and some fonts-* or *-ttf-* or such. Most likely named from the original source tarball.
I find *-fonts name is OK, unless someone has a strong objection.
They are still only in M17N, not in FACTORY, so we are free to change for now.
thanks,

Well, I think is just better to have a ''standarized" naming scheme. What about just using the font names, so instead of *foo* we name it just foo. (ej. symbola-fonts -> symbola, ttf-alee->alee).
IMO, having prefix or suffix makes easier to identify that it's a font package. I vaguely remember that there is a (tentative) packaging rule for fonts, but I couldn't find it in Wiki. But there should be still there... Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+help@opensuse.org
