Sorry for the typo
The link of our site is https://www.nongnu.org/freebangfont/

Comment 2 Petr Gajdos 2022-04-12 14:01:59 UTC

Thanks for letting us know.

I have submitted package with new or new versions of:

AkaashNormal.ttf  Ani.ttf  JamrulNormal.ttf  
MitraMono.ttf  MuktiBold.ttf  Mukti.ttf

Hope that's all.
See:
https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/969461

I am not sure it would be a good idea to do an update for SLE 15. What do you think, Thomas?

Comment 3 Anirban Mitra 2022-04-12 16:11:53 UTC

Thank you very much for updating the fonts

Comment 4 Anirban Mitra 2022-04-12 16:20:35 UTC

However as MitraMono.ttf, Mukti.ttf and MuktiBold.ttf are updated versions of mitra.ttf, MuktiNarrow.ttf and MuktiNarrowBold.ttf the older versions are better be removed. Please also note that bng2-n.ttf and bng2-b.ttf are not unicode compatible bengali fonts. They are legacy encoding fonts which are used a source of Mukti and Muktibold. So they also better be removed

Comment 5 Petr Gajdos 2022-04-13 07:38:08 UTC

Okay, thanks for correcting me.
So only LikhanNormal.ttf and sagarnormal.ttf are untouched. Ok?

Comment 6 Anirban Mitra 2022-04-13 10:03:10 UTC

Yes, LikhanNormal and SagarNormal is unchanged.

Comment 7 Petr Gajdos 2022-04-13 13:53:56 UTC

I think removing fonts disqualifies it as potential version update for SLE15. I think we can consider to do an update for 15.4.

Thomas, what do you think?

Comment 8 Lubos Kocman 2022-04-19 10:55:13 UTC

Proposing for SLE-15-SP4:GA as Leap takes package from there.

Comment 10 Petr Gajdos 2022-04-22 07:33:24 UTC

New font package was accepted into 15sp4, i.e. it will be shipped in openSUSE 15.4. Thanks for reporting!

Comment 11 Anirban Mitra 2022-04-22 14:24:51 UTC

Thank you very much for your effort
