Hello... I know Pango will stay 1.42.4, just giving a "preview" and sharing question.
So I was able to do an all out compilation using
Pango-1.44.5
2 casualties
- pygtk
- Handbrake (Upstream being aware about the Pango Problem
and HandBrake not being part of BLFS).
So I Discarded both components and was able to compile all again and
install (from scratch) without trouble.
To my great dismay, in graphic mode (sddm + Mate packages)
fonts are displayed as "graphic symbol" garbage and
display is not usable anymore....
I tracked back to Pango-1.43, adding back pygtk,
recompile everything (the 800 packages), install again (from scratch)
and the fonts show up nicely.
List wisdom is certainly far better than mine and I could be
wrong, ... but my guess pygtk is involved about font display....
So here my concern/question:
Both Pango and pygtk are coming from gnome project.
Pango is updated, while pygtk is still stuck back in the
years (circa, 2011 AD), I would say pygtk is not
a (future) gnome components, right?
Is pygtk due to be replaced by something else?
About another topic, I see seamonkey compilation problem
reported using last component (glibc-2.30, kernel-5.2).
On my side, I noticed no problem about seamonkey (I am systemV)
using the same build parameters for weeks.
(build context, kernel-5.2.8, glibc-2.30, gcc-9.2.0)
:)
ok, once installed, seamonkey is crashing while displaying
complex WEB pages, but it is showing up and responding....
(falkon + html5, is reliable)
