Bug#362920: needs truetype font support to be switched on
Package: libxfont1
Version: 1:1.0.0-3.1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
In the change from monolith to modular, some XFont defines were altered,
e.g. BUILD_FREETYPE to XFONT_FREETYPE
I discovered it in the course of updating Xprint upstream, DanielS has
applied the patch (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603).
Since Debian has not reached 7.1 yet, it would be great if it could be
backported to 7.0. Otherwise Xprint has to select generic fonts to print
with, which is quitw ugly.
The attached patch needs to be applied to
libxfont-1.0.0/src/fontfile/ffcheck.c.
Thanks,
Drew
