i8degrees [1] filed an adoption request for fontbm [2]: Hi, I would like to make a request to become a maintainer of this package. The previous maintainer, @apicici, has orphaned this package and suggested that I should make a petition in order to apply. My intent is to bring the package up to date to v0.7.1 with the patch I supplied in the comments.
P.S. I have been using Arch Linux for many years now and feel comfortable with the PKGBUILD system. I have posted patches for many different packages over the years. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/i8degrees/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/fontbm/
