From the README

The runic bundle provides font and packages for the Anglo-Saxon futharc 

script, used in England until just after printing was established. The bundle is one of a series for archaic scripts.

Changes in version 1.1 (2005/03/31) o Font supplied as Postscript Type1 instead of MetaFont.

thanks for the upload; i've installed the files as requested.
