We have been thinking it would be better to fork a new branch and probably also move to a new repo at the same time given that Fedora use of pagure.io is being replaced with Fedora Forge soon.

I have prepared https://pagure.io/fonts-rpm-macros/pull-request/27
which reverts changes/commits in the main branch from 3.0.0 release
till 4.0.2 release and then re-applied later commits from 4.0.2
release. Hopefully this will help everything in sync and we can
further work and develop or fix any future bugs on this new proposed
PR change in the main branch. This proposed PR also includes any
missing Fedora package patches which are not in the main branch.
Request our I18n and Fonts SIG members to review this PR work. If it
looks good we can change the main branch code.

Regards,
Parag
