It would be best if the fonts were repacked with a different compressor.
Especially that newer compressors get much better compression ratios.
Nevertheless, this does not stop you from packaging them for Fedora:
you just have to unpack and repack them yourself, and upload the
repacked tarball as your sources.

Would you list which compressor suits well to font packaging?
Zip is fairly common as far as I know and cross-platform. Should new
compressors are better, it will be nice
to document them so future font packagers will provide the right formation.
