Dear packager,

At 20091029T192211Z, while scanning the rawhide repository located at:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/static-repos/dist-rawhide-current/x86_64/
I have identified the following problems in your fonts-KOI8-R package:

SRPM          RPM                  4    5    16   19
fonts-KOI8-R  fonts-KOI8-R         16   16   16   16
fonts-KOI8-R  fonts-KOI8-R-100dpi  60   60   60   60
fonts-KOI8-R  fonts-KOI8-R-75dpi   114  114  114  114
              Total                190  190  190  190

4. Fonts in packages that do not declare font metadata

    ☛ Font-specific rpm metadata is required for automatic font installation to
    work. If you apply our font packaging templates, it will be generated at
    package creation time.


5. Fonts in packages that do not respect font naming conventions

    ☛ Please respect font package naming conventions and provide consistent
    packages to users. Some scripts may depend on strict package naming.


16. Fonts fc-query can not parse

    ☛ fc-query could not parse some font files in the package. The files may be
    malformed and in need of fixing, or fc-query has a bug (in that case,
    please report the problem so it is fixed).
    
    Any font file rejected by fc-query will be useless in fontconfig and most
    applications. If it can not be fixed drop it.


19. Fonts that do not pass fontlint sanity checks

    ☛ Fontforge's fontlint¹ test suite found problems in some files included in
    the package. Those problems may not be obvious and only manifest as strange
    behaviour in specific applications (making them hard to debug). For that
    reason it is recommanded to report those problems upstream and get them
    fixed, even if the font file seems to work fine most of the time.
    
    You can ask help about specific fontlint errors on:
    https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fontforge-users
    
    ¹ http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/fontlint.html

Please take the appropriate measures to fix the fonts-KOI8-R package.

I will warn you again if I find problems next time I am ran.

Your friendly QA robot,
