Hi, This message is mostly directed to Cosimo, but others are welcomed to have a go, too.
I just uploaded FontVal-2.1.1-py-osxbin.tgz (and its gpg signature sig if you are paranoid...) to: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hp-pxl-jetready/files/Microsoft%20Font%20Validator/misc/ Most of the other binaries are uninteresting... the main ones I would like somebody with a mac to have a go are these 4: 1) FontValidator-gcc , FontValidator-clang : for these two, please just test whether "+raster-tests" does what it does. I think both probably works correctly. I would likely ship FontValidator-clang (replacing it as "FontValidator") if it is confirmed that it works. There is no need to set any environment variables, etc or put any files anywhere else. 2) FontVal-32 , FontVal-64 : I'd also like these two to run as they are without messing with environment variables, or putting libraries somewhere, but I suspect these two may not launch without setting DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH to the bundled "libs" directory in the tarball. Also the -64 one may be worse in other aspects to do with the GUI. So those are the two things to watch out for. Mac OS X is going pure 64-bit in a couple of releases later, -64 is the direction thing has to go. (the previous 2.0 release and everythng before for mac were 32-bit binaries). This is also a rather different way of stuffing the "heavily customized freetype" and "all the mono bits" into a single executable, compared to how I made FontVal 2.0 run on the Mac a year ago. If this bunch of binaries work, quite perversely, I can do it with Debian/Ubuntu too, apparently, and get FontValidator to ignore the system-wide freetype :-)... _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
