Bug 112680 - app-text/ttf2pt1 does not convert otf fonts
Bug#: 112680 Product:  Gentoo Linux Version: unspecified Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux Status: RESOLVED Severity: normal Priority: P2
Resolution: FIXED Assigned To: maintainer-needed@gentoo.org Reported By: t.vanremortel@ha.be

Summary: app-text/ttf2pt1 does not convert otf fonts
Keywords:  
Status Whiteboard: 
Opened: 2005-11-16 02:04 0000
Description:   Opened: 2005-11-16 02:04 0000 
ttf2pt1 has no support for freetype (ft) fonts to convert. This is needed to
convert otf fonts.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge ttf2pt1
2. ttf2pt1 -p?


Actual Results:  
the following front-ends are supported now:
  bdf (BDF bitmapped fonts)
   file suffixes: bdf
  ttf (built-in TTF support)
   file suffixes: ttf


Expected Results:  
the following front-ends are supported now:
  bdf (BDF bitmapped fonts)
   file suffixes: bdf
  ft (based on the FreeType library)
   file suffixes: ttf otf pfa pfb
  ttf (built-in TTF support)
   file suffixes: ttf


Digging into the code, shows me that the Makefile is patched correctly to use
the freetype parser, but it doesn't compile.
When compiling it by hand (after patching the Makefile, you get an error that
ft2build.h cannot be found because it is not include.
Just include the file in ft.c after line 14, and compile again. Now it compiles
and works (see Expected Results).

To use it, create a overlay for ttf2pt1, put the patch in "files" directory
Sorry for the duplicated post of the ebuild. There's something wrong with my
network connection here

A change in make causes this problem.
I have already updated my patch.
It works well now.
