It might be text related to an older version of the fonts. There used to 
be a separate source package called "latex-xft-fonts" which included 
them. So perhaps we can remove that text.

OTOH, Basil Malyshev is not the sole author of the fonts. He converted 
them from other formats. The question is if the original fonts were in 
the public domain or if they also require copyright notices. The BaKoMa 
fonts are clearly a derivative work of the original fonts.
