The font token starts with the foundry it's from -- b&h. This translates |
| 16 |
to bh in the package name. It's specified using the old core fonts setup |
| 17 |
(the foo-blah-*-foo-140-*-etc), so I know it's probably a bitmap font, |
| 18 |
meaning 75dpi or 100dpi. It's not lucidatypewriter but just lucida, so |
| 19 |
I'm able to eliminate those font-bh-lucidatypewriter-* packages. That |
| 20 |
just leaves font-bh-{100,75}dpi. |
