I had a look at the files. I don’t understand most of the package stuff ;)

To use the category/subCategory like this is unusual but should work.

But you don’t need the altName if it is the same as "uni"+Unicode.

Thanks for taking a look!

SMuFL defines 2790 codepoints, so I needed some way to break that up to keep track of all those glyphs!

Thanks for the tip about altName, I’ll remove it if it’s superfluous.

In case you’re curious, the package stuff does two things:

lib/build.js converts the JSON provided by the SMuFL specification into GlyphData.xml and Groups.plist
bin/cli.js provides the command line tool for installing the files
