Hi all,
I've updated ttf-indic-fonts package below is the changes I've done
  * debian/control
    + Removed the Suggests fields from binary font packages
  * debian/rules
    + rules file is now one liner to meet dh7 standard
  * created install files for all font packages (udeb,deb)
  * Updated README.Debian file to contain version of each font
    file
  * Updated Lohit fonts for hindi,tamil,telugu and gujarati
    to latest upstream version

In summary the package now matches dh7 standards and defoma related
stuffs are removed. I would request every one to test the package and
provide the feedback.

I also request every one to help us in changing the name of
ttf-indic-fonts to new font naming policy (drafting is still in
progress in pkg-fonts team). New font naming will be in this form
fonts-<foundry>-name where
foundry - will be author or company maintaining fonts. Whether foundry
is mandatory or not is still under discussion in pkg-fonts
name - will be name of font

Please provide feedback on this too

Thanks and Regards
