 -- Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>  Mon, 1 May 2006 20:02:17 +0200

ttf-freefont (20060126b-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Change package priority to extra
   * debian/rules, debian/control:
     - Now use cdbs to build the package which oversimplifies the
       debian/rules file
   * debian/rules:
     - Explicitely change permissions of debian/scripts/strip_glyphs.pe
       Closes: #357154

 -- Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>  Thu, 16 Mar 2006 06:50:47 +0100

ttf-freefont (20060126b-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fake new upstream version as the layout of the
     .orig.tar.gz file has been reorganized
   * debian/rules:
     - Now use quilt to manage patches
   * debian/watch:
     - file added
   * debian/patches/003_alef-lamed:
     - Change the ligature type for Hebrew Alef-Lamed
       Closes: #349657
   * debian/patches/004_workaround-spacing-bug:
     - Re-enable spacing bug workaround, and update ascent/descent in patch.
       This fixes spacing issues in several applications, including
       the graphical debian-installer.  However, OpenOffice.org still shows
       spacing issues, so this doesn't quite fix #254113.
       Huge thanks to Josh Triplett for the patch
   * debian/README.Debian:
     - Mention that the former Alioth project is no more used

ttf-freefont (20031008-1.1) unstable; urgency=high

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * High urgency due to fix for release-critical bug.
   * debian/fontforge-bug-workaround.patch: This patch works around a bug
     in fontforge: it ignores the Ascent and Descent values specified in
     the sfd, and supplies its own incorrect values.  It also adds the
     HheadAscent and HheadDescent value to its own values, so this patch
     uses these values to correct the calculated values back to the correct
     values.  This patch should be reviewed when the bug in fontforge is
     fixed.  (closes: #254113)
   * debian/control: Add Build-Depends on patch.
   * debian/rules: Apply the patch.

 -- Josh Triplett <josh.trip@verizon.net>  Sun, 29 Aug 2004 11:05:50 -0700

2003

ttf-freefont (20031008-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.
   * debian/control, tools/ConvertFont: pfaedit has been renamed to fontforge,
     requiring an update of the dependencies and build scripts
     (closes: #253902, #251369)
   * debian/control: Removed (udeb) from the udeb description field
     (closes: #195627).
   * debian/control: Updated standards version to 3.6.1.

   * New upstream release.

 -- Peter Hawkins <peterh@debian.org>  Sun, 1 Jun 2003 09:36:20 +1000

ttf-freefont (20030327-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.
   * Updated defoma hint file to reflect correct character set information.
     Thanks to Michael Fedrowitz. (closes: #187799)

 -- Peter Hawkins <peterh@debian.org>  Wed, 30 Apr 2003 18:51:13 +1000

ttf-freefont (20030319-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Changed package so the TTF files are built from the SFD files using
     pfaedit, rather than using the upstream provided TTFs. Since we are
     now using TTFs without hinting turned on, we don't have the problem
     of ugliness of the fonts due to pfaedit having broken hinting.
     This has also cut the size of the source package in half.
     (closes: #182823)

 -- Peter Hawkins <peterh@debian.org>  Fri, 21 Mar 2003 10:27:51 +1100

   * New upstream release. The new upstream release fixes some font
     breakage which occurred in 20030219. Sadly, hinting still is
     borked. (closes: #183076)
   * Package now Recommends: x-ttcidfont-conf (closes: #185127).
   * Updated Standards version to 3.5.9.

 -- Peter Hawkins <peterh@debian.org>  Thu, 20 Mar 2003 12:29:32 +1100

ttf-freefont (20030219-1) unstable; urgency=low
