[why] We want to replace the existing casks. But they do not have a consistent way to name the casks. Sometimes blanks are preserved (as dashes): "unpatchedName": "DejaVu Sans Mono", "patchedName": "DejaVuSansMono", "caskName": "dejavu-sans-mono", The above looks like cask-name == unpatched-name. Here they introduce blanks out of thin air (the original name does not have blanks): "unpatchedName": "DaddyTimeMono", "patchedName": "DaddyTimeMono", "caskName": "daddy-time-mono", Here they add something to the name??!: "unpatchedName": "Gohu", "patchedName": "Gohu", "caskName": "gohufont", Here the cask-name follows the RFN renaming: "unpatchedName": "Hasklig", "patchedName": "Hasklug", "caskName": "hasklug", Here they do not follow the RFN renaming: "unpatchedName": "Liberation", "patchedName": "LiterationMono", "caskName": "liberation", And there are a lot more ... strangenesses. I guess the casks have been created by different people following different ideas. [how] All these inconsistencies makes setting up rules how to determine the cask name from the other names very complicated and brittle. If we want to preserve the existing cask names the simplest and most stable approach is to explicitely specify them in the fonts.json database: Introduce a new data field "caskName", like shown above.
