[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#780233: fonts-inconsolata: Please package v1.014 from Google Font Directory

[Antoine Musso]

Package: fonts-inconsolata
Version: 001.010-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I found out on wikipedia that the inconsolata font has been forked on
Google Foot Directory. It has been fully hinted and a bold variant
created.

Project directory:
https://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/source/browse/ofl/inconsolata/

ChangeLog:

18 September 2012 (Alexei Vanyashiin) Inconsolata bold v. 1.014
- Fixed spacing issue associated with the character "4" and "0"
- Applied ttfautohint (to fix windows rendering problem that occurred in
  v 1.000)

7 December 2011 (Kirill Tkachev) Inconsolata Bold v. 1.000
- Completed Bold version of Inconsolata in VBF format.

That would probably close https://bugs.debian.org/618568 which state the
bold font is too wide in konsole.  I only have Medium and Oblique
myself but that is an other story.
