Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Bastian Germann <[email protected]> X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] * Package name : python-vfblib Version : 0.11.1 * URL : https://github.com/LucasFonts/vfbLib * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: Python Description : Converter and deserializer for FontLab Studio 5 VFB files FontLab’s own vfb2ufo converter is from 2015, only outputs UFO v2, and contains serious bugs that are never going to be fixed. There are some fonts in Debian that have their source stored in fvb which are usually converted via a proprietary tool to some other format and are not built from the original source during package build time. This package is introduce to rectify that.
