In bug #218288, it was brought to our attention that |
2 |
media-fonts/sharefonts, which has been in our tree under a |
3 |
public-domain LICENSE, is anything but. Each of the fonts in this |
4 |
collection is released under a variety of restrictive or non-free |
5 |
licenses, the majority being shareware licenses that require the user |
6 |
to make payment to the author for continued use (usually $5 after 30 |
7 |
days). Many of these fonts are also crippled with the full version |
8 |
available for a fee. |

As such, I've masked sharefonts for removal in 30 days. There have been |
11 |
no new releases since it was added to portage in 2002, and no changes |
12 |
excepting keywording since 2004, so I'm hoping this doesn't impact too |
13 |
many people. I apologize to those it does. |
