Simple - You don't, since NO_PACKAGE is defined because it was agreed that my original interpretation of the EULA wouldn't allow distribution of any pre-build packages. Some people had a different opinion though, and this was discussed briefly a few months ago... It's a shame since it'd be very nice to have a webfonts package on the CD or even online. > are you talking about getting rid of font.alias or about the -netscape- > aliases ? I guess you are talking about the last one, no ? I'm talking about getting rid of the -netscape- aliases, ie what you did. However now I really remembered why I took that decision, and I changed my mind... you see other apps shouldn't be forced to have the 8, 9 and 10pt sizes rendered as 11pt... > to see if everything works fine, go there : > > http://www.joerg-pommnitz.de/TrueType/xfsft.html > > then click on the first screenshot :-) I did, everything looks fine, appart from this: http://www.joerg-pommnitz.de/TrueType/demo.html Apparently we are missing some font sizes. I'll do some more tests and if I have something quite different from your patches I'll send you the patch to test it yourself. --kkonstan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
