We know that there is a new version of GRASS.

But we cannot update because we need the internationalized version of GRASS
to be able to distribute the IPA fonts.
The IPA fonts have a license which allows to distribute them with the
i18n version of GRASS.

The latest i18n version of GRASS appears to be 5.0.3, see:

On

http://www.grass-japan.org/FOSS4G/

there is a comment:

I.e. it looks like the i18n work is alreay in 5.7-CVS. 6.0.1 is probably
not yet internationalized.

Sorry, but therefore I have to close this bug as WONTFIX until a newer
version of GRASS becames available which also allows the distribution
of the IPA fonts.
