Subject: xfonts-encodings: Absolute_path patch makes it out of work
Package: xfonts-encodings
Version: 1:1.0.0-2
Severity: important
Hi David,
Recently, several bug reports have been composed for the problem of
incorrect encodings file locating function, including 362722, 366097
and 366098. The bug that X11 encoding cannot find encodings file is,
originally, due to the incorrect encoding-path in rules file of
package libfontenc1. Fortunately, the wrong encoding path has been
fixed in the latest version of package libfontenc1, say, 1.0.1-6.
But the upgrade of package xfonts-encodings results in a simliar bug
again. It seems that the absolute_path patch may not work, since it
makes X11 applications cannot find a proper encodings file even when
libfontenc1 does provide a right encoding-path.
I have to downgrade xfonts-encodings from 1.0.0-3 to 1.0.0-2 to solve
this problem.
