------- Additional Comments From nicolas.mailhot at laposte.net  2008-05-06 17:28 EST -------
Only looked at the spec since the SRPM is not reachable.

Anyway:
1. Spec is a textbook copy of the official template → OK
2. Source is correctly licensed and from a trusty provider → OK

Approved

Some optional comments
1. you do not need the cp in %prep. Just use %{SOURCE0} in %install directly
(and save a few electrons)
2. for releases ≥ F9 you can drop the -f in fc-cache
3. Upstream TTF file name is fugly. Fontconfig will work the same no matter what
of course but you should consider changing it to something better in the install
ttf line
4. it's somewhat dangerous to use 1.0 as version for upstreams with lax release
discipline. They sometimes update the file in-place later without changing the
TTF metadata version (1.0 is the default for the version field in many tools,
thus unfortunately it does not always mean the author really decided this was
release 1.0). For this reason I've used timestamps as versions in the gfs font
packages
5. bonus points if you can get upstream to release its font in a nice versioned
archive with detached license text.
