Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2008-11-28 15:29:23 MSK 
fonts-type1-cm-super-tex-afm-0.3.3-alt7&#013;&#013;(This report is like https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18031 .)&#013;&#013;Now, the description says:&#013;&#013; The fonts-type1-cm-super-tex-afm package contains Adobe Font Metrics for Type 1 fonts converted&#013;...&#013;&#013;and it says nothing about the potential uses of this package. So, by reading the description, I can't decide whether I want to install this&#013;package (unless I know what AFM is for, but this is too technical for most people, for example, for me).&#013;&#013;I suggest that the description ends with a phrase like:&#013;&#013;&quot;Install this package if ....&quot;&#013;&#013;or&#013;&#013;&quot;This package may be used by ...&quot;&#013;&#013;(such phrases were a tradition in the descriptions of Mandrake packages, and they were useful).&#013;
