Subject: TAMu fonts use wrong encoding

Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2007 15:45:16 -0400

Package: ttf-tamil-fonts
Version: 1:0.5.0
Severity: normal

The TAMu family of fonts in the ttf-tamil-fonts package simply contain
Tamil glyphs placed over top of Latin codepoints. This constitutes
incorrect encoding.

If fonts like this are needed by users of the language, perhaps for
reading non-Unicode websites, could the legacy fonts be moved to a
separate package, perhaps ttf-tamil-legacyfonts or similar? This would
help users with lots of multilingual Unicode fonts installed avoid
having their font-selectors cluttered with lots of unusable fonts,
whose names are often shown using the font itself, producing pure
nonsense.
