Description David Kaspar // Dee'Kej 2017-09-22 13:53:42 UTC 
This is a tracking BZ to track status of all BZs that require specfile change to use 'urw-base35-fonts' instead of (old/obsolete) 'urw-fonts'.

ADDITIONAL INFO:

The previous 'urw-fonts' were a complete mess. They were not updated for a long time, upstream has changed, the contents has changed, the versioning used to that date has become useless, etc.

A new package has been created up from the ground, which follows the font packaging guidelines and contains the latest fonts from (URW)++ company.

This package (urw-base35-fonts) will be soon available, replacing/obsoleting the 'urw-fonts' package.

To ensure the smooth transition during 'dnf upgrade', it is necessary for all packages dependent on 'urw-fonts' to update their requirements:

OLD (obsolete):                       NEW (latest):
Requires: urw-fonts        ->>        Requires: urw-base35-fonts
Comment 9 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2020-04-01 16:42:21 UTC 
This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
Comment 10 Anna Khaitovich 2020-07-22 12:46:56 UTC 
Closing this bug because all "Depends On" bugs are closed, so assuming no more specfiles need to be updated
