Overview

Request 563247 superseded

- Add psaux-flex.patch to fix a regression in Type1 rendering

- Update to version 2.9
* Advance width values of variation fonts were often wrong.
* More fixes for variation font support; you should update to
this version if you want to support them.
* As a GSoC project, Ewald Hew extended the new (Adobe) CFF
engine to handle Type 1 fonts also, thus greatly improving
the rendering of this format. This is the new default.
* A new function, `FT_Set_Named_Instance', can be used to set
or change the current named instance.
* Starting with this FreeType version, resetting variation
coordinates will return to the currently selected named
instance. Previously, FreeType returned to the base font
(i.e., no instance set).
* Some fuzzer fixes to better reject malformed fonts.

- Update to version 2.8.1
* B/W hinting of TrueType fonts didn't work properly if
interpreter version 38 or 40 was selected.
* Some severe problems within the handling of TrueType Variation
Fonts were found and fixed.
* Function `FT_Set_Var_Design_Coordinates' didn't correctly handle
the case with less input coordinates than axes.
* By default, FreeType now offers high quality LCD-optimized
output without resorting to ClearType techniques of resolution
tripling and filtering. In this method, called Harmony, each
color channel is generated separately after shifting the glyph
outline, capitalizing on the fact that the color grids on LCD
panels are shifted by a third of a pixel. This output is

backlog, bootloader-uefi broken


Karl Cheng's avatar

Cannot reproduce the issue on an existing UEFI bootloader running FreeType 2.9 on an HP Elitebook 9470m. Is there something different about the installation ISO or the virtualized environment?

A likely candidate to break python-Pillow - moving to a separate staging for easier debugging/validation

oh - possibly the new fix already addresses this; so let's see
