Hi Patrice,

I will review the WIP again later.

Having djvusans.ttf described in d/copyright spare us a repacking with
the "+dfsg" suffix thing.

Now I have another requests which seems completely counter-intutive at first:

Please depends on "fonts-dejavu-core" and either:
   - patch the code to read the tight file
   - create a debian/lix-data.link with the right syntax with +/- this one line
           /usr/share/lix/data/fonts/djvusans.ttf ->
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf
   - (sometimes nothing is needed, package uses FontConfig hand find
the right file anyway,
       "strace -e open" or alike is your friend if you want proof)

This will make the packaging lighter and more efficient.
De-vendoring is the general Debian moto

https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/fonts-dejavu-core/filelist

In case of further doubt about this one .ttf file in d/copyright,
just take inspiration from fonts-dejavu-core's d/copyright

Greetings

Alexandre
