#1957 F29 Change: Liberation Fonts 2 https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1957 DECISION (+6, 0, 0)
Sigh!
Really nothing has changed since the decision in Fedora 19 to stick with Liberation 1, only 4 years have passed without any changes whatsoever to the "Liberation 2" fonts.
Liberation 1 is no longer developed upstream, but as far as I can tell, neither is Liberation 2.
"Liberation 2" fonts are essentially rebranded Google Croscore fonts. And those Google Croscore fonts are, in fact, already packaged in Fedora (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/google-croscore-fonts). Why can't we just let Liberation be Liberation and Croscore be Croscore?

Agree not much happened in upstream. Its because i was busy in other project and also conflict between Liberation 1 and 2. Basic idea behind Liberation 2 was to stop bug fixing on Liberation 1 and develop 2 for future. But still we were using Liberation 1. Now, we have new maintainer for Liberation Fonts and with clear direction for Liberation 2, he will do the required bug-fixes and enhancements into it. He is already working on adding BitCoin glyph to it.

No, Liberation 2 are not just re-branded. We have done bug-fixing and also added Serbian language support into it. [1]
And
those Google Croscore fonts are, in fact, already packaged in Fedora (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/google-croscore-fonts). Why can't we just let Liberation be Liberation and Croscore be Croscore?
Unlike Liberation, Google just released .ttf version for there fonts. I have not see any way, to fix issues in Noto upstream [2] and rebuilt that .ttf. In Liberation 2, we have source file .sfd, one can fix, provide patch.
Thanks Kevin for raising this point, i assure will get more development on Liberation 2 soon. Bug list for Liberation 2 [3]
Thanks, Pravin Satpute
