--- Comment #5 from Nicolas Mailhot <nicolas.mailhot at laposte.net>  2009-02-15 13:36:22 EDT ---
1. your -compat package needs to obsolete culmus-fonts <
thisversion-thisrelease for the upgrade path to work
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Shipping_fonts_in_Fedora_%28FAQ%29#But_my_old_package_is_replaced_by_several_new_packages.21

2. if you don't add a suitably threatening description to your compat package
people will do stupid stuff such as adding new deps on it
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=82799

3. Your descriptions and summaries may need a little work, maybe ask the Hebrew
localization team for help?
http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/he

4. I'd have followed
/usr/share/fontconfig/templates/substitution-font-template.conf

a bit more closely to make sure the fonts are registered in the correct generic
families but that's your choice to make of course

The Obsolete bit is the only part which is likely to be a big problem short
term
