Source: tulip Version: 5.4.0+dfsg-3 Severity: normal Hi!
I've been looking at the fonts-materialdesignicons-webfont package, as we need a newer version for python3-qtawesome. In my explorations, I learnt the following: * The current version of the package is 1.6.50, which is needed for OpenStack Horizon. See the discussion in https://bugs.debian.org/973617 about possible ways forward. * There are currently only three reverse dependencies of this package: an OpenStack Python package which directly accesses the font; another package which will be fine with the current release of the fonts, and tulip. * Looking more closely at the tulip source code, I see that you load the system MDI fonts, but library/tulip-ogl/src/TulipInitMaterialDesignIcons.cpp was generated from version 4.9.95 of the font. This is certainly inconsistent with what is currently present on the system (version 1.6.50) and will be inconsistent with what I propose (currently version 7.1.96). I have no idea whether this introduces a bug in tulip, as I don't use it myself. But it would probably make sense to update this file at Debian build time to use the current Debian version of the MDI fonts (presumably using a variant of utils/scripts/generate_md_cpp_init_code.sh making use of the file /usr/share/fonts-materialdesignicons-webfont/css/materialdesignicons.css, which contains all of the required information). Best wishes, Julian
