Package: ttf-malayalam-fonts
Version: 1:0.5.4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

/etc/defoma/hints/ttf-malayalam-fonts.hints tells the rest of
Debian to look for one of the installed fonts in
AnjaliOldLipi-0.730.ttf, but it is actually installed in
AnjaliOldLipi.ttf .

Because Debian packages are supposed to believe defoma when
looking for fonts, policy compliant packages will not be able to
use that font until this is fixed.

I have attached a simplistic patch for the broken hints file.
