-
- VER = [VERSION]
-
- Make sure that the defined version corresponds to the font software metadata
- which you can check with ftinfo/otfinfo or fontforge itself. It is highly
- recommended that file 'ChangeLog' is updated to reflect changes.

- Create a tarball with the following command:
-
- $ make dist
-
- The new versioned tarball will be available in the dist/ folder as
- `liberation-fonts-[NEW_VERSION].tar.gz.`
