The license is "CC by attribution", I will do this as soon as possible.

For the first font, a subpackage would be fine, even though you'll not I didn't
search for *.font files in repoquery, so those can rot in peace a little longer
(but a subpackage is always better than a private font)
For the second font it only says "Avatar font by C.J. Ellsworth" so you need to
track this person to get a proper license (OFL or GPL+font exception are good)
You can also try the http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ service to see if it
finds you a new contact.
The font is in Debian so you can ask Debian-side if they have a current
contact.
If you can't you have to drop the font in Fedora.
Spot may have other suggestions.

Hi
First of all, I'd like to thank you for this report, I wasn't aware of the
fonts issue (one always learn :).
This is particularly a good timing as I'm about to submit a new package in
Fedora, and it also contains some fonts ^_^
Anyway, back on Waste's Edge.
I contacted the developer, and he told me that only two fonts are included:
/usr/share/adonthell/games/wastesedge/gfx/window/font/*/font.font
/usr/share/adonthell/games/wastesedge/gfx/window/font/avatar.ttf
The first one is a bitmap one that was specifically created for the game. Kai
(Adonthell / Waste's Edge lead dev) contacted the original author to have
precisions about the font license. This one should not be a problem, I'll
simply create a subpackage wastesedge-fonts for it. That should do it if I
correctly understood the packaging policy on fonts. Could someone confirm ?
However, the second one might cause a little more trouble. It is a True Type
font that was created by a fan of the Ultima game [1] [2]
I tried contacting him, asking for more informations about his font license,
but it looks like the email address provided on his website is not valid
anymore.
I'm not sure what I can do here, any idea ? :-/

Good catch. The package includes 3 identical copies of the FreeSansBold font
which we ship in the freefont package.
I've replaced the copies with symlinks and require the package.

Summary: mkfontscale produces syscalls with EINVAL
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477607
Summary: mkfontscale produces syscalls with EINVAL
Product: Fedora
Version: 9
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: freetype
AssignedTo: besfahbo(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: sgrubb(a)redhat.com
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: besfahbo(a)redhat.com, kevin(a)tigcc.ticalc.org,
fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com
Classification: Fedora
Created an attachment (id=327635)
--> (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=327635)
patch fixing problems described herein
Description of problem:
The mkfontscale program uses the freetype library. Our IDS work shows that the
freetype library causes mmap syscalls with EINVAL return codes. This is because
its not checking the length of the file before calling mmap. If the file is
opened readonly and the length is 0, the kernel does not like it.
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. add to audit rules: -a always,exit -S mmap -F exit=-ENIVAL -k einval
2. reboot system
3. ausearch --start recent -k einval
