Looks good here. Tagging as 'confirmed' and I hope a Debian Developer (DD) can
find the time soon to look at your package.

Abhishek Deshpande,

I spotted something while reviewing the package. The package version you have
submitted is the latest upstream tag version, but the 'debian/watch' file is
tracking upstream releases. Can you adjust the 'debian/watch' file to track tags
or possibly ask upstream '2.14' as a release.

I will not remove the 'confirmed' tag at this time and hope you can rectify this
issue sooner rather than later.

Hi Abhishek Deshpande,

Thanks for applying to adopt fonts-stix.

Given where we are in the freeze and that fonts-stix does not have
autopkgetests (not sure how you would make those for fonts), we cannot
upload fonts-stix to unstable at this time.

This leaves us with two options:

  * We can either upload to experimental. Simply replace `unstable` with
    `experimental` in the most recent changelog entry and resubmit, OR

  * We wait for the release before uploading this package.

Please let me know which option you prefer and remove the `moreinfo`
tag, once you have an answer and the package.

Additionally, if you have an update on the watch file question that Phil
mentioned below, then it would be great too (but not a blocker for an
experimental upload):


Best regards,
Niels

Your submission is not built from source. At least every font version >=
2.10 comes with full source and build scripts. Please use them to build
the font.
