The 5.0-1 sponsor expanded my changelog entry, and I'd not updated that here. Now fixed. Thank you for noticing it. > - debian/rules does not need these two lines: >-DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS = 1 >-include /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk Also fixed. Many thanks in advance for sponsoring!

Font packaging and Unicode Private Use Areas
Hello mentors,
I think I encountered a corner case about font packaging.
I have to view lots of pictures through SSH without X forwarding during my
work for machine learning purpose. The best software for this purpose, I
think, is chafa[1], which performs much better than catimg.
However I'm still not satisfied with chafa's resolution so I tired to
generate a set of glyphs specific for Unicode art, leveraging K-Means
clustering algorithm. The result[2] surprised me and it looks promising.
The latest result is far much better than what I posted in the pull
request page.
As the chafa package maintainer I have to face the following
issue when my custom font is merged into upstream code:
1. What's the best practice for fonts that occupies PUA plane?
The number of glyphs is controled by the manually-set hyper-parameter
"K" ("K"-Means). And I personally don't mind using up the whole PUA plane
16 [3] for printing pictures. Unicode art will be better if more
custom glyphs are avaiable.
That means the resulting font, if I didn't manage to reduce the "K"
coefficient, will conflict all fonts that uses PUA plane 16 .
My personall opinion is to do nothing more than adding a notice to
package description, saying that "this package ships a font that
occupies the whole Unicode PUA plane 16".
Thanks.
