This package has to go to contrib since it requires the proprietary
Adobe ADFKO to build from source.

Subject: Adobe ADFKO is now free software!
Date: Sat, 20 Sep 2014 11:17:53 +0800
Hi all,

Adobe ADFKO has been released under a free software license (Apache 2.0):

http://blog.typekit.com/2014/09/19/new-from-adobe-type-open-sourced-font-development-tools/

So the fonts that build using them (RFPs and ITPs CCed) can now go to
Debian main once
Adobe ADFKO has been packaged and accepted into Debian main.

Anyone want to package it?

I have had a look at it, and man this is a messy piece of software.

I'll see what I can come up with, and report my findings.

That branch is now named main:
<https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro/tree/master>.
I only mention this because if you try to follow the old link, you'll
end up looking at the release branch with its dizzying array of
binaries.
