lowercasing the package name should have been sufficient, I'll check it
tomorrow (my time is up today)

Another point: oflb- in a font context means "a font downloaded from
www.openfontlibrary.org" Since that does not seem the case for this package,
you need to define another prefix

You have some documented examples here
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_packaging_policy#Naming

We prefix font package names by foundry to group packages with the same origin
in package management tools, since an entity that produced good fonts will tend
to publish other good fonts, and an entity that produced average fonts
unfortunately rarely gets much better (or improves its old fonts at the same
time). So this is useful to the user. Other SIGs maye have made similar choices
(or not)
