Hi, as announced on debian-devel [1], Liberation fonts v1 have been abandoned upstream and Liberation fonts v2 are the only maintained version - along with the Liberation Sans Narrow font which has been extracted out of the v1 releases. It does thus not make sense anymore to have the v1 fonts packaged separately n Debian and let them block the "fonts-liberation" package name, with the prefered version of the fonts moved out into the "fonts-liberation2" package. With the latest upload, I have thus let the v2 font take over the src:fonts-liberation package name, providing both fonts-liberation and fonts-liberation2 binary packages, the latter being a transitional dummy package depending on the further. So, so src:fonts-liberation2 package is now obsolete and should get removed from Debian unstable (and testing). Thank you!
