Today when i switched on the Extra-devel repo this showed up.. It wanted me to update it. As it is from extra-devel where it's practically free to upload whatever my guess is that it could be a virus.

Another dude got this update notice too.. anyone know anything?

It seamed not to have any dependencies to any program..

if its asking you to download from devel - goto the package page and look for the code?

Trojan != Virus != Worm. For unspecified (or when in doubt) use malware.

If it was any sort of malware it would have been bad luck in any case, it's not like they respect the packaging rules and removing the package certainly would not get rid of the problem...

Anyways, it's just a font pack (as the name would suggest)
