fontmatrix does seem to build OK from the latest svn source.

Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes.

You might also want to join the packager team to maintain this piece of software: see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager

This package was imported in 2012 by blue_prawn, modified in 2013 but it looks like it has never been built.

Comment 4 Dan Fandrich 2024-02-16 07:36:00 CET 
It seems that this is dependent on QtWebKit, which has been dropped upstream and in Mageia (mga#29326), meaning that this can no longer be imported.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX

I should not that it is still available as a Flatpak: https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.fontmatrix.Fontmatrix
