What are the dependencies actually for? They seem entirely superfluous for installing a single '.otf', unless I'm missing something.

Rather then depending on other AUR packages it might be better to depend directly on fontconfig for fc-cache and on xorg-mkfontscale for mkfontscale and mkfontdir — or am I missing something?

I have made some changes to the PKGBUILD as well as generating a new .SRCINFO since this package is outdated and the upstream project had moved to a new address (http://viznut.fi/unscii) and a new version was released as well (2.1).

Some users on this page (comments) have been unhappy and I needed the package as well so I decided to update the package myself. Evgeni, if you're available, contact me and I will send the changes to you in whatever way you would prefer it. I would be happy to help out with the other otf-unscii-* packages too. Cheers!

New sha512sum is f334f33d989a23d87fa80491d67286dd9eef4de7e85cc617b83d5eb62f19fb70a5b0b8158271913d664b5966bea4c8747707d6f116c663ff796d3ddf1e8bdf21.

@kunev Thanks for the fix! I think some of the other unscii packages had a similar problem, so I'd be on the look for it.

Thanks @DaxG! Seems there's a newer upload of that one that's at the same URL. I've changed the sha512sum so it should be good now.

Install fails, unscii-16-full.otf failed the validity check.
