The ebuild for media-gfx/fontforge-20070501 has been in the trunk since may 2 2007 I've been using this app for some time with no problems at all. Thus, I'm requesting the stabilization.. Thanks! Reproducible: Always hkbst@gentoo.org 2007-06-27 13:54:00 0000 I'd like to second this request. I will need this before a recent version of lilypond can be stabilized. Font herd, if you're okay with this please attach arches. dirtyepic@gentoo.org 2007-06-28 02:17:16 0000 fontforge is spanky's baby. i'll defer to him. vapier@gentoo.org 2007-06-28 09:45:41 0000 ive only been bumping it in light of the fonts herd ignoring it and i needed it a while ago for wine ... 20070501 and newer should be safe for stabilization dirtyepic@gentoo.org 2007-06-28 13:03:59 0000 archs, please stabilize media-gfx/fontforge-20060501. thanks. hkbst@gentoo.org 2007-06-28 13:16:52 0000 you mean media-gfx/fontforge-20070501 armin76@gentoo.org 2007-06-28 18:41:51 0000 Using fontimage: armin@main ~ $ fontimage Copyright (c) 2000-2007 by George Williams.

I specifically need 20070501 or newer. (In reply to comment #7) > +1 to armin's comment, app-text/mftrace is completely broken with this version. stabilizing mftrace-1.2.9 will prolly solve that. fauli@gentoo.org 2007-07-03 17:29:12 0000 (In reply to comment #9) > the error is because fontforge is trying to execute those scripts with python > instead of the built in scripting language which seems to be the default > behavior now > > i'll ask upstream about it Mike asked, Mike got an answer, so all arches should stay, as a fix will be provided shortly: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=200706281752.19188.vapier%40gentoo.org&forum_name=fontforge-devel corsair@gentoo.org 2007-07-17 10:42:59 0000 please readd arches when it's ready for prime time. ;-) hkbst@gentoo.org 2007-09-18 16:09:11 0000 Any update on this Christian? This is keeping some very obsolete (and broken) lilyponds in the stable tree. vapier@gentoo.org 2007-09-18 16:39:02 0000 this has been fixed in all released versions since ... so pick any fontforge version after 20070723 and stabilize it i'd say hkbst@gentoo.org 2007-09-26 15:59:06 0000 Okay, reCCing arch teams. Please stablilize media-gfx/fontforge-20070808. hkbst@gentoo.org 2007-09-26 16:00:29 0000 Euhm, make that media-gfx/fontforge-20070831, it's near enough to the 30 days IMHO. jer@gentoo.org 2007-09-26 16:13:29 0000 Stable for HPPA. armin76@gentoo.org 2007-09-26 16:37:16 0000 alpha/ia64/sparc/x86 stable angelos@gentoo.org 2007-09-28 12:10:47 0000 amd64 stable nixnut@gentoo.org 2007-09-28 18:20:42 0000 stable on ppc tgall@gentoo.org 2007-10-06 06:11:50 0000 stable on ppc64
