Dear Debian maintainer, On Sunday, October 14, 2007, I sent you a notification about the beginning of a review action on debconf templates for x-ttcidfont-conf.
Then, I sent you a bug report with rewritten templates and announcing the beginning of the second phase of this action: call for translation updates. Translators have been working hard and here is now the result of their efforts. Please consider using it EVEN if you committed files to your development tree as long as they were reported. The attached tarball contains: - debian/changelog with the list of changes - debian/control with rewrites of packages' descriptions - debian/<templates> with all the rewritten templates file(s) - debian/po/*.po with all PO files (existing ones and new ones) As said, please use *at least* the PO files as provided here, preferrably over those sent by translators in their bug reports. All of them have been checked and reformatted. In some cases, formatting errors have been corrected. The patch.rfr file contains a patch for the templates and control file(s) alone. Please note that this patch applies to the templates and control file(s) of your package as of Sunday, October 14, 2007. If your package was updated in the meantime, I may have updated my reference copy....but I also may have missed that. This is indeed why I suggested you do not modified such files while the review process was running, remember..:-) It is now safe to upload a new package version with these changes. Please notify me of your intents with regards to this. There is of course no hurry to update your package but feel free to contact me in case you would need sponsoring or any other action to fix this. --

Template: x-ttcidfont-conf/tt_backend
Type: select
Choices: freetype, xtt
Default: freetype
_Description: Backend to use for TrueType handling on X:
- XFree86 4.x has two backends to handle TrueType fonts, FreeType and X-TT.
- FreeType (a simple backend) is standard, while X-TT is alternative and
- has a mechanism of decorating TrueType fonts that can create bold and
- oblique faces from a single font.
- .
- If unsure, choose FreeType.

-_Description: FontPath of TrueType and CID managed by defoma is changed
- TrueType and CID font paths which defoma manages have changed
- again. Please add these entries to the "Files" section of
- /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
+ Two backends can handle TrueType fonts: FreeType and X-TT.
.
- FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID"
- FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
+ The standard FreeType has simple features, while X-TT
+ offers a TrueType fonts decoration mechanism that can create bold and
+ oblique faces from a single font.
.
- Also add these two directories to the "catalogue" path lists in
- /etc/X11/fs/config and/or /etc/X11/fs-xtt/config, and delete any
- mention of /usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID in any of these files.
+ If in doubt, you should choose FreeType.

- There are two ways for XTT to calculate the font metrics:
+ There are two ways for X-TT to calculate the font metrics:
.
- 1) use header info; fast, lazy, possible miscalculation(?).
- 2) calculate every glyph; slow, need highspeed CPU and much memory.
+ - user header info: fast and lightweight but fallible;
+ - calculate every glyph: slow and heavyweight but reliable.
.
- If you have a relatively fast CPU and plenty of available memory, you
- should go for (2) and decline this option. If your computer's resources
- are limited, you should go for the first solution and select this option.
-
+ With a fast CPU and enough memory, you should decline this option and
+ X-TT will calculate every glyph.
