[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#590978: amavis-stats: contains non-free font

[Paul Wise]

Package: amavis-stats
Version: 0.1.22-2
Severity: serious
User: pkg-fonts-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: non-free
X-Debbugs-CC: pkg-fonts-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org

Your package contains a non-free font:

/usr/share/amavis-stats/ChalkboardBold.ttf
http://pkg-fonts.alioth.debian.org/review/fnt-183d43e188b3a310da59e8a9bdbd6d84.html

This looks to be from Apple Mac OS X:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chalkboard_(typeface)

It is very unlikely that the licence clearly allows all the
DFSG-required freedoms:

It is very unlikely that you'll be able to convince Apple to make this
font DFSG-free. Please remove the font from the binary package and the
source package and depend on another font package or move the package to
non-free.

Please contact your upstream and ask them to use fontconfig or similar
to get fonts for use by the software instead of using a specific font.
