Hi,

these patches add opensurge[0] and its game engine, surgescript. The
bundled copies of Roboto fonts are replaced with the store versions.

I kept the Gothic A1 font because it isn’t packaged for Guix. While the
font is distributed under OFL[1], I could only find it on font repos
such as https://fontlibrary.org and not on the official site[2]. If
downloading from repos is OK, I can add the package for the Gothic A1
font and update this submission.

Thanks!

I am not a reference on that matter, but I think that downloading from
font repos should be avoided, if possible. So I suggest to add this as
a TODO note for later, if we find font in an official place.

WDYT?

I agree. I’ll add the TODO locally and submit it with the next package
upgrade, if that’s OK.

Thanks for the review!

Fine by me. Meanwhile, I'm closing this bug report.
