Sorry, I lost you there. You state Debian use a specific approach, and I ask you how you conclude that. I still don't read from this follow-up an elaboration on that. Do you mean to say that you agree that Debian currently package WOFF2 fonts in each binary package that needs them, and that you instead *envision* a different approach? Earlier, you asked how it could be done. It seems you don't care how it can be done, you already know how you want it done and only care to discuss that. I am not really excited to engage in that type of conversation, and hope that I am mistaken about that impression of your conversation scope here. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
