- Update to version 1.17.8:
+ In a continuing effort to reduce the amount of legacy code, and
increase the long-term maintainability of cairo, the following
backends have been removed:
- GL and GLES drawing
+ Additionally, cairo's Autotools build system has been removed;
from now on, cairo will only support the Meson build system.
While the end result should be identical, further testing is
appreciated.
+ In this snapshot, cairo gained support for rendering COLRv1
fonts, and rendering SVG and COLRv1 fonts with custom palettes.
+ Support for macOS and Windows has been improved, with lots of
build and bug fixes.
+ Lots of safety issues have been fixed, with array bounds
checking and plugging memory leaks, as well as fixes for bugs
identified via fuzzying.
+ This is going to be the last snapshot of the 1.17 development
cycle; we only expect minor bug fixing and improvements until
the 1.18.0 release.
