A TrueType font-family: Serif and Grotesk (Sans Serif) for practical
use in documents. This project aims at creating a free alternative
to the standard W*ndows Fonts (T*mes and Ar*al). PfaEdit is used
as FontEditor. The goal is to create a really good font with a
real italic and bold variant, with OSF (old style figures -> old
numbers) and small Caps.
This version of Xft2 is not supported and I have been using
the maintained version since last year on several pkgsrc build
systems. But I will not switch to new version until okayed by others.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
file for another package (and breaking CHECK_FILES). Instead, instruct
the user on how to merge the example configuration file into the true
configuration file in a MESSAGE file. Also, fix the path to the
kochi-ttf fonts. Bump the PKGREVISION.
Changes:
- Added support for multiple SFD files.
- New option `-L' to provide a ligature mapping file.
- New option `-w' to emit PostScript encoding vectors for
subfont files to be used with pdfLaTeX.
- Add support for a configuration file (ttf2pk.cfg) which can
read more than a single map file, similar to pdfTeX.
- Support for character codes greater than 0xFFFF.
- ttf2tfm no longer assumes that the x-height is always 400 PS
units.
This avoids the need for a confusing line of the form:
DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE+= path/to/INSTALL
in the package Makefile, and actually removes the need to specify it
altogether since by convention, the existence of the DEINSTALL script
is enough to add it to DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE.

PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now

transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
* FF failed to output lookups in the right order for the GSUB table.
* FF would crash when attempting to generate a font which had no familyname
* FF could be built agains ft2.2 only if the debugger were being built.
Make it work always.
* Patch by Mike Frysinger from gentoo. Use the HOME environment variable in
preference to /etc/passwd.
* Write sfddiff as a fontforge script and put it back into the install process.
* Add code to font compare so it can do the old sfddiff --merge option.
* Someone wanted acorn2sfd! Make it compile again.
* Make configure look for libgif
