Legal issues are the horror to me...

I dived into the referenced bug #665334 and read in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=665334#173 that
some of the code is based on Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType
(AFDKO), which is licensed under Apache-2.0 license.
But I didn't compare the code in AFDKO and the urw-base35 fonts so
far.

But it's also possible that urw-base35 is based on an older version of
fontforge, which still has this issue.

So maybe this issue is already solved and lintian has to be
updated/overriden but it's also possible that this issue still
persists and has to be solved by URW.

Maybe some of the contributors of #665334 can assist here?

Greetings
Roland
