  Description     : Detect language support for font binaries
 Hyperglot helps type designers answer a seemingly simple question of language
 support in fonts: When can I use font A to set texts in language B?  It takes
 a pragmatic answer by identifying a standard character set for each
 orthography used by a language. The database that currently contains
 information for over 640+ languages is a work in progress, designed to grow.

This package is a new dependency for the gftools package. I intent to
maintain this package under the umbrella of the Debian Python Team.
