--- Comment #37 from Nikolaus Waxweiler madigens@gmail.com --- Possible solution #1:
- Invest the time needed to fix https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/issues/3052 or figure out a work-around (apparently 1.x has the same problem when compiled with "newer" FFs?) - Package Git commit with the fix for Fedora - Upgrade to 2.x
Possible solution #2 (maybe the best long-term solution):
- Invest time into porting the Liberation fonts source to UFO format, as that is the standard open (exchange) format if you ignore the 800 kg gorilla called Glyphs.app. We use it internally for storing and building from of our (commercial) projects, maintenance of the UFO world is better than of FontForge. Plus: better scriptability with e.g. fontParts.
Possible solution #3:
- Replace Liberation with Arimo/Cousine/Tinos from Google Fonts. There is no source for them, although according to the changelog, Liberation was initially made from the TTFs of Arimo/Cousine/Tinos... I don't know if there is any maintenance done on those, though.
PS: I just found https://github.com/liberationfonts/liberation-fonts. Nice.
