* Fix manuals in section 3 so they get built and installed.
* Rework GSUB/GPOS script parsing to avoid crashing when presented
with broken fonts.
* Add a few more example configuration files to /etc/fonts/conf.d
from the debian packaging.
Fix memory leak of patterns rejected by configuration (#2518)
Create prototype $PREFIX/etc/fontconfig/conf.d directory and populate
it with a few sample files. These samples are unused as the file
names don't start with numbers.
Update documentation.
changes:
2.2.97
Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well
ordered.
Added Punjai orthography.
The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems.
The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont
to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file.
<include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files
in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order.
<selectfont> configuration added to control which fonts are used.
fontformat font pattern elements built from the FT_Get_X11_Font_Format
function in newer versions of FreeType.
'capability' list constructed from gsub/gpos and silf values in TrueType
files.
Multi-lingual names (style, family, fullname) extracted and stored with
parallel <foo>lang properties marking language.
2.2.98
Share object name strings (Michael Meeks)
Eliminate a couple of codepoints from Russian orthography (John Thacker)
Add synthetic emboldening configuration changes (Jakub Pavelek)
Change FcFontSetSort to ignore language after fonts with the requested
languages have been found. (Owen Taylor)
Add some RedHat font configuration changes (Owen Tayler).
Add full Unicode case folding support to case-ignoring string functions
(Keith Packard)
Remove Han characters from Korean orthography (Tor Andersson)
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
in particular this fixes a problem where no font matches can be found
by gtk2 apps. This should fix the problem where even the gtk-demo
program fails run.
Lots more documentation installed, fontconfig-config replaced
with pkgconfig file.

Fontconfig is a library for configuring and customizing font access.
Fontconfig can:
* discover new fonts when installed automatically, removing a common
source of configuration problems.
* perform font name substitution, so that appropriate alternative fonts
can be selected if fonts are missing.
* identify the set of fonts required to completely cover a set of
languages.
* have GUI configuration tools built as it uses an XML-based
configuration file (though with autodiscovery, we believe this need is
minimized).
* efficiently and quickly find the fonts you need among the set of fonts
you have installed, even if you have installed thousands of fonts,
while minimzing memory usage.
* be used in concert with the X Render Extension and FreeType to
implement high quality, anti-aliased and subpixel rendered text on a
display.
Fontconfig does not:
* render the fonts themselves (this is left to FreeType or other
rendering mechanisms).
* depend on the X Window System in any fashion, so that printer only
applications do not have such dependencies.
