I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
- The size comparison for BDF and PCF files could fail sometimes.
- Some CFF files were still not loaded correctly. Patch from
Derek Noonburg.
- The stroker still had some serious bugs.
- FreeType didn't properly parse empty Type 1 glyphs.
- An unbound dynamic buffer growth was fixed in the PFR loader.
- Several bugs have been fixed in the cache sub-system.
- The auto-hinter didn't work properly for fonts without a Unicode
charmap -- it even refused to load the glyphs.
II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
- Many fixes have been applied to drastically reduce the amount of
heap memory used by FreeType, especially when using
memory-mapped font files (which is the default on Unix systems
which support them).
- The auto-hinter has been replaced with a new module, called the
`auto-fitter'. It consumes less memory than its predecessor,
and it is prepared to support non-latin scripts better in next
releases.
- George Williams contributed code to read kerning data from PFM
files.
III. MISCELLANEOUS
- The BDF driver no longer converts all returned bitmaps with a
depth of 2bpp or 4bpp to a depth of 8bpp.
- A new option `--ftversion' has been added to freetype-config to
return the FreeType version.
- The memory debugger has been updated to dump allocation
statistics on all allocation sources in the library.
the X11 distribution using imake into mk/buildlink3/imake-check.mk.
imake-check.mk calls out to a helper shell script mk/buildlink3/imake-check
that generates the required Imakefiles and runs imake. Remove the
now extraneous builtin-imake.mk files as the builtin.mk files can now
contain the name of the imake symbol to check.
contain a command plus arguments. We use the standard idiom to extract
the first word of a list stored in a make variable:
VAR_CMD= ${VAR:C/^/_asdf_/1:M_asdf_*:S/^_asdf_//}

XXX VAR_CMD= ${VAR:[1]}
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
Unfortunately, configure doesn't always manage to correctly pick up these
values from GREP and EGREP, so we pass them in as cached values. This way,
configure still doesn't always print them correctly, but they end up in
config.status, which is the end goal.
This solves the problem where on Solaris, configure detects the wrong grep
and worse still, fails to detect a suitable egrep at all.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
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".
into the bsd.options.mk framework. Instead of appending to
${PKG_OPTIONS_VAR}, it appends to PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS. This causes
the default options to be the union of PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS and any
old USE_* and FOO_USE_* settings.
This fixes PR pkg/26590.
I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
- The function `FT_Get_CharMap_Index' was only declared, without
any real code. For consistency, it has been renamed to
`FT_Get_Charmap_Index'. (This function is needed to implement
cmap caches.)
- `FT_Outline_Get_BBox' sometimes returned incorrect values for
conic outlines (e.g., for TrueType fonts).
- Handling of `bhed' table has been fixed.
- The TrueType driver with enabled byte code interpreter sometimes
returned artifacts due to incorrect rounding. This bug has been
introduced after version 2.1.4.
- The BDF driver dropped the last glyph in the font.
- The BDF driver now uses the DEFAULT_CHAR property (if available)
to select a glyph shape for the undefined glyph.
II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
- George Williams contributed code to handle Apple's font
distortion technology found in GX fonts (`avar', `cvar', `fvar',
and `gvar' tables; the Multiple Masters API has been slightly
extended to cope with the new functionality).
- The `FT_GlyphSlotRec' structure has been extended: The elements
`lsb_delta' and `rsb_delta' give the difference between hinted
and unhinted left and right side bearings if autohinting is
active. Using those values can improve the inter-letter spacing
considerably. See the documentation of `FT_GlyphSlotRec' and
the `ftstring' demo program how to use it.
III. MISCELLANEOUS
- A new documentation file `formats.txt' describes various font
formats supported (and not supported) by FreeType.
* bug fixes
* Both PCF and BDF drivers now handle the SETWIDTH_NAME and
ADD_STYLE_NAME properties. Values are appended to
face->style_name; example: `Bold SemiCondensed'.
* The PCF driver now handles bitmap fonts compressed with the LZW
algorithm (extension .pcf.Z, compressed with `compress').
* A new API function `FT_Get_CMap_Language_ID' (declared in
`tttables.h') is available to get the language ID of a
TrueType/SFNT cmap.
* The hexadecimal format of data after the `StartData' command in
CID-keyed Type 1 fonts is now supported. While this can't occur
in file-based fonts, it can happen in document-embedded
resources of PostScript documents.
* Embedded bitmaps in SFNT-based CFF fonts are now supported.
* A simple API is now available to control FreeType's tracing
mechanism if compiled with FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE. See the file
`ftdebug.h' for more details.
* YAMATO Masatake contributed improved handling of MacOS resource
forks on non-MacOS platforms (for example, Linux can mount MacOS
file systems).
* Support for MacOS has been improved; there is now a new function
`FT_New_Face_From_FSSpec' similar to `FT_New_Face' except that
it accepts an FSSpec instead of a path.
* The cache sub-system has been rewritten.
built-in or not into a separate builtin.mk file. The code to deal
checking for built-in software is much simpler to deal with in pkgsrc.
The buildlink3.mk file for a package will be of the usual format
regardless of the package, which makes it simpler for packagers to
update a package.
The builtin.mk file for a package must define a single yes/no variable
USE_BUILTIN.<pkg> that is used by bsd.buildlink3.mk to decide whether
to use the built-in software or to use the pkgsrc software.
as PREFER_PKGSRC. Preferences are determined by the most specific
instance of the package in either PREFER_PKGSRC or PREFER_NATIVE. If
a package is specified in neither or in both variables, then PREFER_PKGSRC
has precedence over PREFER_NATIVE.
Even 2.0.9 is not good enough for newer fontconfig; for example,
gtk2 won't buildlink correctly (and will use older X version of
include/freetype2/freetype/ftbdf.h) and libfontconfig needs
FT_Get_BDF_Property which is not defined.
No PKGREVISION bump is needed, because would not even build in
first place.
BUILDLINK_PREFER_PKGSRC
This variable determines whether or not to prefer the pkgsrc
versions of software that is also present in the base system.
This variable is multi-state:
defined, or "yes" always prefer the pkgsrc versions
not defined, or "no" only use the pkgsrc versions if
needed by dependency requirements
This can also take a list of packages for which to prefer the
pkgsrc-installed software. The package names may be found by
consulting the value added to BUILDLINK_PACKAGES in the
buildlink[23].mk files for that package.
