Package: xlibs-data Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-3 Followup-For: Bug #320458 As I said in the previous followup to this bug (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=320458;msg=58), the problem is really in libfreetype.{a,so}, which resides in the xserver-xorg package (so, maybe the bug should be reassigned?):
`--> dlocate /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libfreetype.so xserver-xorg: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libfreetype.so In the previous version of xserver-xorg, this library was built as '.a' and it was possible to replace it with libfreetype.a from xserver-xfree86_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_i386.deb and get freetype rendering working properly. However, in the recent build (6.9.0.dfsg.1-3) the library is built as '.so' and there is no easy workaround possible anymore. I've searched in the X Task Force list archives, thinking that maybe there is some kind of obscure policy/licensing issue/reason for NOT enabling bytecode interpreter in xorg's libfreetype (while it IS enabled in the libfreetype.*deb), but haveb't found anything. Could this be fixed? Pretty please? It is a matter of uncommenting a single #define, and the only possible forkaround for now is custom building of the whole xorg, which is not for the weak of heart ... -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-2-686 Locale: LANG=ru_UA.KOI8-U, LC_CTYPE=ru_UA.KOI8-U (charmap=KOI8-U) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
