Cantarell font

Find a way to make it happen and write a blueprint.

I am not a very experienced deb packager but reckoned that a font should not cause me to big of a problem. So i build a deb and source. I had to do the files manually.. so am not sure "rules" is exactly as it should. An extra check on the source would be advised.

I have tested it and it should install and uninstall without problems.

Found the Git repo of Cantarell

http://git.gnome.org/browse/cantarell-fonts/

@daniel there is no such thing as inexperienced deb packagers in this project - ugr-meta/ugr-desktop-g3 is my first package ever...

I'll set up a sub-project for this. I'll set up a branch that imports the latest from git automatically, and another branch where we can put all the debian folder and packaging stuff; the launchpad buildengines can be set up to mash these together on a regular basis automatically. Thanks for your efforts.

Sub-project has been created, importing current work now. As it turns out, someone has already packaged this for Ubuntu: https://launchpad.net/~janvitus/+archive/gnomestracciatella/+sourcepub/1638118/+listing-archive-extra

https://launchpad.net/ugr-cantarell

Its setup, I have added Daniel's work and set it to auto import from GIT and build the package.

Awesome! Now i need to find something more to do. ;)

The build on launchpad actually failed, I'll post the logs here tonight.

Shoot. Hopefully we can get this to work by 0.1.0

Here's the buildlogs. From the looks of it the glitch is probably in the way that launchpad combines the debian and source folders into the same archive.

Build recipe:
# bzr-builder format 0.3 deb-version {debupstream}-0~{revno}~dev
lp:ugr-cantarell
nest source lp:~ubuntugnometeam/ugr-cantarell/import source

https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntugnometeam/+recipe/ugr-cantarell-daily-dev

Well, that attachment didn't work. Relevant part of the log here:

Found the issue. Daniel setup the font source directory as /src, while I thought it was /source and configured the recipe as such. It's fixed and building now and should be in dev channel soon if all goes good.

So i did it correct or should i change anything it future attempts?

Nope it's all good, built and in dev channel now. We should see about
getting it in Oneric main or universe, since Oneric uses G3 and
doesn't have this. Thanks for packaging it!

For some reason, it appears Launchpad only wants to build cantarell-fonts for i386 - investigating now.

Actually, launchpad is strange in the way that it shows builds - it showed i386 when it built the package for all architectures. Cantarell-fonts is now built in dev channel, and is listed as a ugr-desktop-g3 dependency in dev.

Built using Daniel's original source and in dev and main now
