| Summary: Include Files and Libraries mandatory for Development. | |
This package countains all include files, libraries, configuration
files needed for compiling applications which use the fontconfig
library.
In addition, it contains extensive documentation and manual pages for
developers using the library.
Fontconfig is a library for configuring and customizing font access. It
contains two essential modules, the configuration module which builds
an internal configuration from XML files and the matching module which
accepts font patterns and returns the nearest matching font.

* Fri Apr 27 2007 - aj@suse.de
- Add libexpat-devel to BuildRequires.
* Fri Mar 23 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #118131 comment #93: set the autohinter default
matching on "font" instead of on "pattern".
If an autohint value is set in pattern, OpenOffice 2.1 will use
that even if there are fontconfig rules matching on "font" which
should override it again). This doesn't cause any problems for
Cairo/Gnome (see bug #104365) because Cairo/Gnome don't try to
change the autohint value anyway.
* Mon Mar 12 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- duplicate patterns correctly (fixes some parts of bug #244579
for Qt4).
fix-pattern-duplicate.diff (by Stephan Kulow <coolo@suse.de>).
* Wed Feb 21 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #246783: avoid crashes when config files contain
some incorrect expressions.
* Tue Feb 20 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #246804: force detection of FreeMono as monospace as
well, recent versions of this font are broken and have glyphs
with wrong width.
* Tue Feb 20 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.4.2.
+ remove do-not-clean-cache-files-for-different-architectures.patch
(included upstream).
+ remove improve-monospace-detection.patch and fix this in
the setup instead of in the c-code using the feature
match target="scan" (see bugzilla #246804).
* Tue Feb 06 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- fix order of changelog entries.
* Wed Jan 24 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #237347: make Pothana2000 the default font for Telugu.
* Mon Nov 20 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Meiryo is not good for monospace.
* Wed Nov 15 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- sync hinting and bitmap setup with fonts-config:
+ Bugzilla #215602: don't use the embedded bitmaps in the IPA
fonts because they are only available in 12, 14, and 16 pixels.
+ Bugzilla #215602: Don't use the autohinter for fonts where it
it distorts the metrics so badly that even the digits which
should be monospaced are not monospaced at all anymore.
+ Don't use the autohinter for good quality TrueType fonts.
- add some new fonts to the prefer lists.
* Fri Nov 10 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- choose nicer default fonts for sans-serif, serif, and monospace.
It is not necessary anymore to choose fonts which are metric
compatible to the Adobe fonts as the default, the bug in kpdf
is apparently fixed (see Bugzilla #129081). The default fonts
for all three styles are now Déjà Vu on openSUSE.
* Fri Oct 27 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- make last patch a little bit nicer to get it included upstream.
* Tue Oct 24 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- do not delete cache files for different architectures.
* Fri Oct 20 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #213616: make suse-font-dirs.conf work again
by symlinking it into /etc/fonts/conf.d.
* Wed Oct 18 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #213190, Fate #300430: "Use CMEXSong font as the
default font for zh_TW locale"
* Mon Oct 16 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.4.1.
+ cache files for different architectures are in different
files now
+ the user specific cache has been split from a single file
in to seperate files for each font directory which are now
stored in ~/.fontconfig/.
* Thu Jun 22 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #185864: add "Requires: bash" to make the postun
and preun scripts of the SLES9 fontconfig package work.
* Fri Jun 02 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #179457: fix font handling for wine (from upstream CVS):
wine uses FcPatternGet instead of FcPatternGetString to find the
full path name of a font file. This used to work but has been
broken recently in the fontconfig 2.4 branch.
* Fri Apr 28 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #104365: match on "pattern" instead on "font" to edit
the default hinting settings to make it easier to override
the defaults with applications using FcPatternDel() and
FcPatternAdd...().
* Wed Apr 19 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #166260 and bugzilla #162064:
add "Khmer OS System" to the prefer lists of fontconfig.
* Tue Apr 11 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #59409: don't set a default value for rgba at all,
rely on the auto-detection instead. Previously it was impossible
to switch subpixelhinting off in the KDE control centre if
it had been switched on by the auto-detection. But in the
meantime this has been fixed in KDE, therefore we don't have
a reason anymore to override the auto-detection.
* Tue Apr 04 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- use "OpenSymbol" as another fallback for "Symbol" in addition
to "Standard Symbols L".
* Mon Apr 03 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #158573: CID keyed fonts should be blacklisted in the
fontconfig setup because they don't (yet) work with
freetype2.
* Fri Mar 31 2006 - zsu@suse.de
- Bugzilla #158573: Hinting will be done before Embolden in
freetype2, but in such case, Embolden will get wrong result
on some glyph contours after applying hinting.
Actually, hinting should be done after embolden, but we can't
fix it in current freetype2. So as a workaround, just turn off
hinting if we want to do embolden.
* Fri Mar 24 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #160226: When alternately starting a 32 bit and 64 bit
application on a 64 bit system, ~/.fonts.cache-2 was always
deleted and generated again, which caused a big performance
issue. ~/.fonts.cache-2 is intended to be multi-arch, but this
didn't work right.
* Thu Mar 16 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #130350: I forgot to add the agfa-fonts "Andale Sans",
"Andy MT", "Bell MT", and "Monotype Sorts" to the list of fonts
which should always use the byte code interpreter if
anti-aliasing is off.
* Fri Mar 10 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.94 (no significant changes, just a nicer
version number).
- don't apply fc-verbose.diff anymore, the warnings cause
too much confusion (see for example bug #156405).
* Fri Feb 24 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060224: fix for Bugzilla #153402 included
upstream.
* Fri Feb 24 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- fix Bugzilla #153402: "fc-cache crashes on some .ttc fonts".
* Wed Feb 22 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060222:
+ Strip \r and whitespace from input; fixes bug 3454.
+ make fontconfig not crash on pango badness.
+ Remove one more archaic character in ka.orth
+ Freeze patterns created by configuration file for tiny
memory savings (every little bit helps).
- fix for bugzilla #152453 now included upstream.
* Tue Feb 21 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #152453: fix crash in fc-cat, see also:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2006-February/002130.html
* Mon Feb 20 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- add Korean fonts "UnBatang" and "UnDotum" to the prefer lists
above the Baekmuk fonts.
* Fri Feb 17 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060220:
+ Don't bail if fontconfig can't remove a dir cache file.
+ Skip the ID of a cache file when copying.
+ Eliminate 'source file too small' bug in FcDirCacheWrite.
+ Add -r --really-force option which blows away cache files and
then regenerates them.
+ Deal correctly with changing FC_CACHE_MAGIC.
+ Enable fc-cat to print out old-style cache info when given a
directory name.
+ Bump up magic version; we changed the binary format.
+ Fix triggering of segfault caused by misreading cache files
(reported by fcrozat).
+ Fix the underlying cause of the below segfault (must usually
call FcDirCacheHasCurrentArch after FcDirCacheValid).
- Dirk Mueller's make_fccache_f_work.diff is obsolete because of
the --really-force option.

there was still an endless loop when using fontconfig
(e.g. when using "fc-match").
* Mon Feb 06 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060206.
- fontconfig-misc-warning-fixes.diff, fontconfig-memleak-fix.diff

fontconfig-memleak-fix.diff, fccache-update-check.diff
* Tue Jan 31 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Patches by Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>:
- fontconfig-misc-warning-fixes.diff (mainly to check return values
of read (), write (), and seek ()).
- fontconfig-fontsubdir-parse-fix.diff:
if FcConfigNormalizeFontDir () was called with a directory
which is not a subdirectory of a directory from a .conf file,
the list of all subdirectories was added to the list of known
directories. When doing this again, the list of subdirectories
was added again. Takashi's patch fixes this.
* Tue Jan 31 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060131.
- fc-cache-should-not-stop-at-the-first-non-existing-directory.patch,

- update to 2.3.93.20060127.
- blacklist the Hershey-fonts, the *.fon fonts from the "wine"

- add improve-normalization-of-font-path.patch.
* Fri Jan 20 2006 - mfabian@suse.de

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2006-January/001864.html
* Thu Jan 12 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- add normalize-path-in-fc-cache.patch to fix the problem reported
here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2006-January/001878.html
Although
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2006-January/001875.html
claims that this problem was fixed, part of the problem still
remained. "fc-cache /foo/bar" and "fc-cache /foo/bar/" generate
files with the same name (md5sum) now, the command using the
final '/' always rewrote the cache even if it was already
up-to-date.
* Wed Jan 11 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060110.
- add full-path-problem.patch to fix the problem that all
full path names reported by "fc-match -v" and "fc-list : file"
omit the last directory component which caused all applications
using fontconfig to crash.
* Mon Jan 09 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060109.
- remove Zhe Su's patch fcmatch-2.3.93-take2.patch (has been
included upstream).
- remove my dummy-crash.patch (included upstream).
- add fc-cat-crash.patch to fix the problem reported in
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2006-January/001879.html
- sync /etc/fonts/suse-hinting.conf with the template in
the fonts-config package.
* Thu Jan 05 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060105 (fixes the problem reported in
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2006-January/001854.html
)
- add new java-1_4_2 font directory. Being able to use
wildcards in directories would be helpful ...
* Wed Jan 04 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- add dummy-crash.patch o avoid the crash when calling
'fc-match "foo:\\_\\_DUMMY\\_\\_=1"'.
- sync /etc/fonts/suse-hinting.conf with the template in
the fonts-config package.
* Tue Jan 03 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20060103 (fixes Bugzilla #141217).
* Fri Dec 30 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- apply fcmatch-2.3.93-take2.patch (by Zhe Su <zsu@novell.com>)
to fix the problem that fonts sometimes could not be matched by
their localized names anymore. See also
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2005-December/001843.html
and the other mails in that thread.
* Wed Dec 21 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.93.20051222.
* Tue Dec 13 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #118720: add Hebrew fonts from the culmus package to
the prefer lists: "Frank Ruehl CLM" (serif),
"Nachlieli CLM" (sans-serif), "Miriam Mono CLM" (monospace).
* Thu Dec 08 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- bitmap-encoding-problem.patch: PCF fonts that have no encoded
characters must be skipped, they are usually just Unicode fonts
transcoded to some legacy encoding. Only Unicode and Latin1
are supported by fontconfig, if such fonts are not skipped they
can be accidentally matched by fontconfig and used by
applications. But they don't work, most applications only
display replacement characters when such fonts are used, some
even crash (urxvt). Probably fonts that have no encoded
characters in other formats than PCF are also useless and
can be skipped as well.
* Wed Dec 07 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.92.20051206.
* Wed Nov 30 2005 - coolo@suse.de

Helvetica to the top of the prefer list for sans-serif, fonts
which are metric compatible to Times to the top of the prefer
list for serif, and fonts which are metric compatible to courier
to the top of the prefer list for monospace.
This is needed for example to display pdf documents better in
kpdf.

- Bugzilla #128930: add patch by Zhe Su <zsu@novell.com> to
improve support of localized font family and style names by
sorting them according to the current locale settings.
With this change, applications which use fontconfig will
automatically get the localized font family and style names.
* Fri Oct 14 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- the return value of fc-cache in directories where
fonts.cache-2 doesn't exist was 1. Fix this.
* Thu Oct 13 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.91.20051013
current head of fontconfig 2.4 branch).
Fixes problem that fc-cache returns 1 (failed) when updating
an already existing fonts.cache-2 file.
* Wed Oct 12 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.91.20051012
(current head of fontconfig 2.4 branch).
Solves the performance regression problem that fc-cache
did take a lot of time even when nothing was changed in the
font directories.
* Fri Oct 07 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.91.20051007
(current head of fontconfig 2.4 branch).
* Tue Sep 27 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #118727: fix artificial bold for applications using
cairo. Thanks to Zhe Su <zsu@novell.com>.
* Fri Sep 09 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #114949 comment #20 - #21: add a rule to
suse-post-user.conf to switch off the autohinter for the webfonts
and the agfa-fonts if anti-aliasing is already off.
This nice idea came from Sven Burmeister.
* Thu Sep 08 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #114949: remove stuff from /etc/fonts/*.conf which
has become obsolete. Rules to replace outline fonts with
bitmap fonts are not necessary anymore if fonts are available
which can achieve rendering quality equal to hand tuned
bitmaps when the byte code interpreter is used.
* Fri Sep 02 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #114949: move the rules to setup the hinting and
anti-aliasing and the rules to enable embedded bitmaps from
suse-pre-user.conf into seperate files and include these
from suse-pre-user.conf. This makes it easier to edit or replace
these rules with SuSEconfig.fonts according to values of
variables in /etc/sysconfig.
* Sat Aug 20 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #105990: switch on embedded bitmaps again during
the installation.
* Fri Aug 19 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #105626: work around the loss of rendering quality
for the IPA fonts caused by the update to freetype 2.1.10 by
switching off the hinting for the IPA fonts.
* Tue Aug 16 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #102328: use Keith Packard's fix for the problem in
the last changelog.
* Tue Aug 16 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #102328: fall back to POSIX if the effective value
of LC_CTYPE is the empty string "". By falling back to POSIX
here we make sure that even in this case fontconfig matches
something readable. Without that it apparently matches completely
random and might match a font which doesn't even have ASCII
glyphs. As a result, nothing at all may be displayed.
* Fri Jul 29 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Revert the defaults in /etc/fonts/suse-pre-user.conf to use
the autohinter and anti-aliasing by default always. Most users
apparently do not like the bitmap look and feel caused by the
last change. As this seems to be a matter of taste, I leave the
rule to achieve that bitmap look and feel in
/etc/fonts/suse-pre-user.conf as an example but disable it by
default. Users who want a bitmap look and feel have to copy
that rule to their personal ~/.fonts.conf file and enable it
by choosing a non-zero pixelsize limit as explained in
the comments in /etc/fonts/suse-pre-user.conf.
* Fri Jul 22 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #64424: "Bytecodeinterpreter in freetype2 - wieso
ausgeschaltet?"
The byte code interpreter is enabled now at build time in our
freetype2 package. Setup the defaults in /etc/fonts to use
black and white rendering (antialias=false) and the byte code
interpreter (autohint=false) for a few fonts which are known to
have high quality byte code instructions. Set antialias=true
and autohint=true as the default for all other fonts.
* Thu Jul 21 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.2.20050721.
- Bugzilla #52167: "fc-list reports inconsistent spacing values
for some fonts": add a patch to improve the detection of
monospaced fonts: ignore glyphs with advance=0 when detecting
monospaced fonts and add a special exception for "Luxi Mono"
and "Nimbus Mono L".
* Wed Jul 20 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #94110: add more directories to the default font path.
* Tue Jul 12 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.2.20050712
+ remove ka.orth.patch, now included.
* Wed Jun 29 2005 - sbrabec@suse.cz
- Added expat to fontconfig-devel to make the .la checker easier.
* Fri May 20 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Fix ka.orth (Georgian), it apparently requires too many
characters which are not really used for Georgian.
- Add BPG fonts (for Georgian) to the preference lists.
* Thu Mar 17 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- add Sazanami and IPA fonts to suse-generic-names.conf.
* Fri Mar 11 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #66498 again: the last change wasn't a good idea after
all. The design of the embedded bitmaps is quite bad in some
sizes, especially the Japanese katakana look extremely ugly.
Therefore it is better not to use the embedded bitmaps during
the installation. I added a special /etc/fonts/local.conf.instsys
file which should be copied to /etc/fonts/local.conf only for
the installation and which is not used in the installed system.
* Thu Mar 03 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #66498: use embedded bitmaps for Korean and Japanese
as well, not only for Chinese as before to get readable Japanese
and Chinese during the installation. The Latin fonts we currently
use during the installation are smaller as before. With the
Gnu Unifont currently used for CJK, this leads to clipping
problems because this bitmap font cannot scale to a smaller size.
When using TrueType fonts like FZSongTi for CJK, the clipping
problems disappear because the font can scale down. But in such
a tiny size, Japanese or Chinese is almost unreadable with
Anti-Aliasing. It's better readable with the embedded bitmaps.
* Mon Feb 21 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- re-enable bitmap fonts.
* Fri Feb 18 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.2.99.20050218.
* Tue Feb 01 2005 - meissner@suse.de
- package now adds -fno-strict-aliasing by itself.
- added sentinel valist markup for 2 functions.
* Thu Jan 13 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- add entries for preferred fonts for Farsi (Persian):
Terafik -> sans-serif, monospaced, Nazil -> serif.
* Wed Oct 06 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #46852: add /usr/lib/ooo-1.1/share/fonts to the default
directories searched for fonts.
* Fri Sep 17 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add "Georgia", "Trebuchet", "Segoe", "Bell MT", and "Andale Sans"
to the generic lists.
* Tue Sep 14 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add FZMingTiB to the "monospace" prefer list (thanks to Zhe Su
for noticing). Remove all "Kai" fonts from the "sans-serif"
prefer list.
* Tue Sep 14 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #45160, Comment #6:
prefer FZSongTi and FZMingTiB also for sans-serif instead of
the "Kai" fonts.
* Tue Sep 14 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #44409: set the default value for rgba to "unknown"
instead of "none".
* Mon Sep 06 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add Japanese IPA fonts to prefer lists.
- add FZMingTiB to prefer list for "serif" below "FZSongTi"
(if we don't install the Arphic fonts by default, there is
no traditional Chinese font left in the list otherwise).
* Wed Aug 25 2004 - kukuk@suse.de
- Avoid /bin/sh in PreRequires
* Tue Aug 10 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- for some Bengali fonts (e.g. "Mukti Narrow"), the autohinter
works well with the patch from
http://www.kde.gr.jp/~akito/patch/freetype2/2.1.7
applied. But for "Likhan" it still doesn't work that well
(look how the "matra" lines at the top line up). Therefore,
switch off the autohinter for the "Likhan" font.
* Mon Aug 09 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add Bengali fonts "Likhan" (serif) and "Mukti Narrow"
(sans-serif) to the prefer lists.
* Wed Aug 04 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add sazanami fonts to the prefer lists.
* Wed Jul 28 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.2.96.20040728. remove fontconfig.patch, this is
included upstream now. This update also includes a patch by
Lubos Lunak <l.lunak@suse.cz> which helps to improve the
performance of fontconfig with KDE.
* Fri Jun 04 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- prefer the proportinal "HGPMinchoL" instead of the monospaced
"HGMinchoL" for serif. Same with "HGPGothicB" instead of
"HGGothicB" for sans-serif.
- add all Mincho and Gothic faces of the commercial Ricoh fonts
to the list of generic names in suse-generic-names.conf to get
reasonable fallbacks if those fonts are not installed.
* Fri May 28 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add the Japanese fonts "HGMinchoL" and "HGGothicB" made by Ricoh
to the prefer lists and generics lists. These are the fonts which
Novell Japan has licensed, they should be preferred if they are
installed.
* Wed May 26 2004 - ro@suse.de
- fix build by defining MIN,MAX and ABS where needed
* Fri Apr 23 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #38243: fix the characters set handling for the
Japanese Dynafonts.
* Tue Apr 20 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #38244:
remove rules to force use of embedded bitmaps by switching
off anti-aliasing. This is not needed anymore because libXft
in our XFree86 package is patched to make use of the embedded
bitmaps anyway if the embeddedbitmap=true parameter is set.
* Fri Apr 16 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #38244: use embedded bitmaps by default for Chinese
(requested by Zhe Su).
* Fri Apr 16 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #38205: make hintstyle=hintfull the default again
for CJK fonts. Our freetype package now has a patch applied to
improve the hinting for CJK fonts, with that patch the results
are much better with hintstyle=hintfull than with
hintstyle=hintnone.
- fix from upstream CVS: (src/fcfreetype.c):
* Fixed bug in using available_sizes[i].height which
is in pixels, not 64ths of a pixel.
* Sat Apr 03 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #38204 comment #5:
"Fix some issue in the default alias list": SimSun is a serif
font, it should not ge in the generics sans-serif list.
- Bugzilla #38204 comment #9:
add rule to get artificial bold for fonts without a bold version.
Until Bugzilla #38202 is fixed, this rule does nothing, but it
does no harm either.
- also specify the foundry when trying to prefer bitmap fonts,
without that the prefer_bitmap rules won't work with Qt
applications.
* Fri Apr 02 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #37540: rework rules for use of bitmap fonts to make
it easier to get at clearly readable results for CJK if by using
embedded bitmaps are used:
* improve rules for the case "prefer_bitmap=true" (not default)
for Latin fonts: replace all "Helvetica" clones with
the bitmap font "Adobe Helvetica", all "Times" clones with
"Adobe Times", and all "Courier" clones with "Adobe Courier".
For hardcore bitmap addicts.
* use embedded bitmaps only for complete ranges, i.e. never
use bitmaps from size a-b, scalable fonts from b-c, and bitmaps
again from size c-d.
* don't match pixelsizes with compare="eq" when trying to use
embedded bitmaps. This won't work if non-integer pixelsizes are
requested. Use compare="more_eq" and compare="less_eq" to check
for a range instead. Then the embedded bitmaps will be used
for the whole range, even if non-integer pixelsizes are
requested.
* use embedded bitmaps for "FZSongTi" only up to 18 pixel.
- change prefer lists for Chinese:
* make "FZSongTi" the highest priority "serif" and "monospace"
font for Chinese
* make "FZKaiTi" the highest priority "sans-serif" font for
Chinese.
* remove "SimSun", "FZSongTi", "HanyiSong", and "ZYSong18030"
from the prefer list for "sans-serif" because these are really
serif fonts.
* remove "AR PL KaitiM GB" and "AR PL KaitiM Big5" from the prefer
list for monospace. All other Chinese fonts in this list are
"ming" or "song" style, it is weird to have fonts of the
completely different "kai" style in the same list.
* Thu Apr 01 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #37114 and 37540: use hintstyle=hintnone for
CJK fonts to improve rendering.
- Bugzilla #37820: handle dual-width fonts as proportional fonts
to avoid extra wide spacing.
- Bugzilla #34400: CID-keyed fonts work for SuSE 9.1 remove
the directory /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/CIDFont/ from
the default font directory list again.
* Mon Mar 29 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #37310: fix location of fontconfig-user.html in
man-pages.
* Wed Mar 24 2004 - mfabian@suse.de

- update to 2.2.92.20040221.
- add bitmap-spacing.patch to fix Bugzilla #34677
* Mon Mar 01 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add entries for Adrian's new "SUSE Sans", "SUSE Serif",
"SUSE Sans Mono" fonts. Prefer over Nimbus and Luxi.
* Mon Feb 09 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.2.92.20040206.
- remove fontconfig-ta.orth-cvs.patch and freetype-2.1.7.patch
(included now).
- add /usr/local/share/fonts/ as a default directory (see
http://mail.fontconfig.org/pipermail/fontconfig/2003-October/000671.html
- add /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/CIDFont/ as a default
font directory.
- add rule to use the URW font "Standard Symbols L" as a
replacement if the original Adobe "Symbol" font is not available.
(see Bugzilla #34324)
- move SuSE specific fontconfig rules into included files.
* Sat Jan 10 2004 - adrian@suse.de
- build as user
* Tue Dec 23 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- make it build with freetype 2.1.7 again.
- Bugzilla Bug 32080: turn off subpixel hinting by default.
* Thu Oct 02 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- remove "ed" from "# neededforbuild".
* Thu Aug 28 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- add "FreeSans", "FreeSerif", "FreeMono" to fonts.conf
(priority below Nimbus, Bitstream and Luxi).
- move priority of "Bitstream Vera" fonts below Nimbus.
- move fontconfig-devel documentation to
/usr/share/doc/packages/fontconfig-devel.
* Sun Aug 24 2003 - adrian@suse.de
- add freetype2-devel and glibc-devel to the -devel Requires
* Sat Aug 23 2003 - adrian@suse.de
- udpate to version 2.2.1
- add %run_ldconfig
* Tue Jul 15 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- add rules to use embedded bitmaps in FZSongTi if desired.
- use binding="same" instead of binding="strong" when adding
bitmap fonts to the pattern. This is necessary to keep the
generic aliases "sans-serif" etc. working as usual even
if "prefer_bitmap" is set to "true". With binding="strong",
"sans-serif" always expands to "Adobe Helvetica" if
"prefer_bitmap" is set to "true" which is not useful for
many languages.
* Wed Jul 09 2003 - sndirsch@suse.de
- added FZSongTi to serif, sans-serif and monospace family aliases
* Wed May 28 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- install fc-list and fc-cache man pages.
* Sun May 18 2003 - mfabian@suse.de

tamil orthography (from upstream cvs)
- add Tamil fonts to "prefer" aliases
- remove duplicate entries of the Bitstream fonts from fonts.conf
- set globaladvance=false for Y.OzFont because it is a dual-width
font.
- change .spec file to make it possible to build with /usr/X11R6
prefix (to make updates for SuSE Linux 8.2 easy).
* Wed Apr 23 2003 - sndirsch@suse.de
- created package
/usr/lib64/libfontconfig.a /usr/lib64/libfontconfig.la /usr/lib64/libfontconfig.so
