I don't see how this could be illegal. The packager simply provides us, the users of the AUR, with a script, that simplifies installing the mentioned font. If it's illegal to use this font on non HP-computers, then it should be noted in the pkgdesc, however it's still the users responsability not to use this script, provided the case he is actually not legally permitted to do so. Anyways, I'm not sure why HP should forbid the use of their font on non HP-hardware, regarding the fact, that as far as I know, HP is not as widespread as would be necessary to benefit from this. Furthermore, I doubt HP has the right to deny the use of their software if they generally provide it for free. Similarly it's unclear whether whether setting up a 'Hackintosh' is actually illegal, especially in different countries with different jurisdictions.

jetm [1] filed a deletion request for ttf-hpfonts [2]:

This package converts a .deb file, the copyright of .deb package says the content only can be used inside of HP.

I still not sure if legally is allowed to be here in AUR. Either of cases, I request deletion of ttf-hpfonts from AUR.

Thanks,
