Angus was looking for debian packagers on #gnustep the other day...
"i can't remember why i didn't pass it over to you guys earlier
http://people.debian.org/~gus/gnustep.defoma
you want to put that into /usr/share/defoma/scripts/  (and make it 
executable of course)
yes, or even some core package (it doesn't use mknfonts at all)
you'll want to test it first (since like i said there's probably some 
problem with it)
so just plonk it into that dir and then run "defoma-app update gnustep"
let me know if it works at all (i've only looked at the generated nfont 
files and compared them with what i think they should be)
i create all the files in /var/lib/defoma/gnustep.d/ and then symlink 
them from /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Fonts
I feel a bit dirty about writing auto-generated stuff to /usr/lib, so if 
GNUstep ever comes up with a way to search /var/lib/defoma/gnustep.d 
directly
then it would be best to change things a little
cool. let me know if it actually works ;)"

Eric, what do you think?

PS: keep gus in the cc:

Cheers,
