Description Sebastian Schubert 2006-04-10 13:17:59 UTC

The extra fontforge cidmaps are required for fonts with a lot of characters (see link).  Setting the USE flag cidmaps installs them.

Adding a local USE flag for cidmaps seems like a bad idea since it's a run-time issue, not a compile-time decision.  Considering the size of fontforge installed, it's not unreasonable to simply install the extra cidmaps unconditionally.  Added to fontforge-20060703-r1, thanks
