I am out of touch with font package naming rules.. but wondering why
have separate font-XXXX , couldn't it go in fonts-gujr-extra ?
if there is going to be only  one font in the dir, why not just put it
in extra dir than each font in its own dir... after installing all
Indic fonts I have about 20 or more dirs under truetype related to
indic.

For devanagari there are
fonts-deva-extra  - 5 fonts
fonts-nakula, fonts-sahdeva, lohit-devanagari - 1 each.

fonts-knda-extra - 8 (2 sets actually)
fonts-navilu, Gubbi  (should this not have been fonts-gubbi?) ,
lohit-kannada - 1 font each.
