ttf-impallari-cantora font cannot be downloaded

The problem

Installation of the ttf-impallari-cantora package failed, because the font cannot be downloaded from the source URL. See below.

Expected behaviour

I would expect to be able to define the list of fonts to be installed by myself (like how it's done with AUR packages.), but it's hard-coded currently.

This role was rebuilt when the Infinality repository went away, with the goal of replacing the behaviour that Infinality had previously provided: nice looking fonts with no effort. We could move the core fonts and AUR fonts to configurable variables. I have not done that previously because fonts are close to the last thing I want to thing about on my machine. I didn't think other people would want to configure fonts.

I liked the Infinality bundle fonts, what a pity that it's gone.

I agree that people generally want good looking fonts and won't bother with custom fonts. However there are few cases when you need a specific font. In my case I use Oh My Zsh configuration for shell which needs Powerline patched font. I could install it manually later, but I would prefer to tell Ansible to do it.
