Package: texlive-font-utils Version: 2009-10 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi,
when trying to convert Open Type Font files to AFM using font2afm, the
script gets stuck in an endless loop. The problem is introduced by the
following code:
elsif ($ext =~ m!otf!) {
system "cfftot1 -b -o ${base}.pfb $_";
redo;
}
The problem is that this restarts the loop without changing the loop
variable ($_). I suppose that the loop was meant to be re-started in
order to process the newly generated PFB file. The attached patch fixes
the issue.
TIA,
Sebastian
