Have these issues been raised with Red Hat/the copyright holders? Have
they indicated that they will (or won't) clarify the points that make it
non-distributable?

Hi Alan,

I saw that the license is gpl+exception what is it about the exception that 
makes it DFSG non uploadable.

Thanks,
Joshua

Hi Alan,

I have gone ahead and made a Debian package for this font set. I certainly do 
not want to step on your toes since you opened the ITP. You can use my 
package as an example if you would like. Or, if you would rather, I can try 
to get a sponsor for the package as is with me as the maintainer.

You can see the packages at:

Thank you,
Joshua Rubin

Hi,

I've already made the package:

http://technotux.org/dload/ttf-liberation/ (~ 10 days ago), but there is a
license problem with these fonts that prevents us to upload it.
