Public bug reported: Binary package hint: wine
In the current version of wine, the arabic characters in a windows application would appear unjoined. The reason is that wine removed ICU support from wine, according to this upstream bug report (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7150): "ICU was removed because it introduced ABI dependencies into Wine that were unreasonable for general consumption (plus it bloated parts of wine by as much as, if not over, 1000%). As such, any patch that is based on ICU is unlikely to go into the main code." Anyways, I applied this patch to wine_1.0.1-0ubuntu6, and I don't see any significant size increase in wine. I don't know though about the ABI issue. I have attached the debdiff with this bug report, I hope it would be considered and included in Ubuntu. ** Affects: wine (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Implement Arabic shaping in wine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/381882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
