Bundling of multiple projects

Fedora packages should make every effort to avoid having multiple, separate, upstream projects bundled together in a single package.

However, when this is unavoidable, packagers must apply for a Bundling Exception with the Fedora Packaging Committee. For more information on Bundling and applying for a Bundling Exception, please read Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries.

Avoid bundling of fonts in other packages

Fonts in general-purpose formats such as Type1, OpenType TT (TTF) or OpenType CFF (OTF) are subject to specific packaging guidelines (1), and should never be packaged in a private application directory instead of the system-wide font repositories. For more information, see: Packaging:FontsPolicy#Package_layout_for_fonts.
