to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Font::TTFMetrics encapsulates the font metrics of a true type font
file. A true type font file contains several tables which need to
be parsed before any useful information could be gathered about
the font. There is the excellent module for parsing TTF font in
CPAN by Martin Hosken, Font::TTF. But in my opinion the use of
Font::TTF requires intimate knowledge of TTF font format. This
module was written to support the use of TTF in Pastel 2D graphics
library in Perl. Three factors prompted me to write this module:
first, I required a fast module to access TTF file. Second, all
the access required was read-only. Last, I wanted a user friendly,
higher level API to access TTF file.
