<para>The download link below obtains

<filename>fontforge-&fontforge-date;-Unix-Source.tar.gz</filename>. This
|

is not the correct name for the archive, because it saves the file as

<filename class="directory">fontforge-&fontforge-version;</filename>. The

|
file should be renamed to the correct filename
|
|
<filename>fontforge-&fontforge-version;.tar.gz</filename>. You can
|
|
achieve this automatically by using the command:</para>
