Aha, there was an open bug for it, but just searching 'mikachan' didn't find it? Augh. Regardless, the bump request is over in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92265 But I don't see why it was done in the first place... Which version of freetype do you have? I'm using the (masked) 2.2.1 and it works fine. I suppose an easy solution is to slot 8.9 and 9.1 versions. Okay, I suppose I have something to solve this problem. TTF and TTC are different formats, some software just works with TTF, some other support TTC too. As for this, the alternative I can think of is the one I'm going to explain. I can add two new packages: mikachan-font-ttf and mikachan-font-ttc, that install the two different formats. They can easily live together, as they install different files in different directories. Who needs one of the two, just merge the needed one. Then I can ask the arches having the previous versions stable to mark the new ones stable, when they'll be, we can mask mikachan-font for removal in 30 days. I can also create a mikachan-font-otf package for the OpenType version, so we're all set. Comments? If nobody disagrees in two days, I'll be going on with this idea. The three versions are merged, now just need to keyword them as per bug #149931. |
