[Pkg-fonts-devel] fontforge packaging update and queries

[Adam Borowski]

I've done a test rebuild of all reverse B-Deps, including indirect ones,
using the current git version.

As fontforge-nox is empty, most fonts obviously FTBFS.  For the sake of the
rebuild, I've made -nox depend on the full version.

It looks like the full version isn't meant for scripting: when called in
sbuild, it spams lots of warnings related to hotkey definitions and
SCUndoAct.


FTBFSes:

* lilypond: unrelated to fontforge: #746005.

* fonts-okolaks: wants to run interactively?
