Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: important Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for fonts-nerd-symbols 3.4.0+dfsg1-3. This maintenance upload fixes grave Debian bug #1153511: companion icon fonts could replace ordinary text in Firefox when a requested CSS font was absent. The fix appends icon fallbacks after the complete requested family list, while retaining the terminal icon coverage from #1149204. It includes Fontconfig/Qt regression checks and documentation of the Firefox scenario. Source: fonts-nerd-symbols Version: 3.4.0+dfsg1-3 Distribution: unstable Urgency: high Maintainer: Marlen Brunner <[email protected]> Homepage: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts Packaging: https://salsa.debian.org/klondikemarlen/fonts-nerd-symbols/-/tree/debian/latest Review: https://github.com/klondikemarlen/fonts-nerd-symbols/pull/36 Release: https://github.com/klondikemarlen/fonts-nerd-symbols/releases/tag/v3.4.0%2Bdfsg1-3 The signed source and unchanged archive orig are available directly: dget -x https://github.com/klondikemarlen/fonts-nerd-symbols/releases/download/v3.4.0%2Bdfsg1-3/fonts-nerd-symbols_3.4.0%2Bdfsg1-3.dsc The complete source set was also transferred to mentors.debian.net. Its package page is not yet available, so mentors processing is unconfirmed: https://mentors.debian.net/package/fonts-nerd-symbols/ Observed checks: clean Debian unstable sbuild and lintian succeeded; autopkgtest passed all 12 Fontconfig/Qt scenarios. After purging the package, the downloaded GitHub release was installed and its version confirmed; the same checks passed. A fresh Firefox ESR process rendered the missing-font CSS stack pixel-identically to Liberation Mono alone. Source signatures and checksums verified against the maintainer public key. Changelog: * Append icon fallbacks after the complete requested family list rather than substituting for missing CSS families in Firefox. (Closes: #1153511) * Check multi-family text selection and Firefox's family-substitution boundary while retaining installed-package Fontconfig and Qt icon coverage. The separate Codicons unbundling request (#1153677) is tracked independently and is not part of this urgent correction. Thank you, Marlen Brunner
