PSA: I've started hosting this package (and all its dependencies) as prebuilt packages in my repository for those that want to install in using pacman without messing around with building from the AUR.

@coincoincanard I've recently adopted this and taken care of most of your points. I have some questions though, and perhaps you are interested in co-maintaining SIL fonts?

  • Andika is packaged by somebody else and I've requested to have it updated and/or let me co-maintain it. The special interest subset should be added there too.
  • I packaged apparatus, but if it's truly obsolete as you say them maybe I should backtrack on that.

Most everything else, including some you didn't mention, should be either updated or added.

That pretty much just leaves three you didn't list, Shimenkan (I am not sure whether to bundle the family together or split them up, Doulos SIL Cipher (of which I wasn't sure on the status of) and Unicode BMP Fallback (which may or may not belong in this set anyway).

caleb: I think you're right. As soon as I have the time I'll fix this package.

This should probably be a meta package that depends on all the parts packages separately. Versioning this makes no sense when the upstream release cycle is different for every project.

Some fonts are either missing or out of date:

  • Andika New Basic is missing

  • Annapurna 1.100 → 1.204

  • Apparatus is not updated anymore and can be replaced by Charis, Doulos, Gentium Plus or Andika

  • Awami Nastaliq is missing

  • Harmattan is missing

  • Lateef 1.001 → 1.200

  • Padauk 2.8 → 3.003

  • Scheherazade 2.020 → 2.100

  • Tagmukay is missing

  • Tai Heritage Pro 2.500 → 2.600

  • The “Special Interest Derivative Unicode Fonts” (Charis SIL, Doulos SIL, Gentium Plus, Andika Font Subsets) is missing

It seems like most of these aren't included in Google Fonts anymore. Could the "conflicts" designation between this and the ttf-google-fonts-* packages be removed?
