Hi all, [Please CC me in any replies, I'm not subscribed] I'm looking at working on removing the Debian-specific, unmaintained defoma font configuration system from Debian (and ∴ Ubuntu) in favour of the cross-distro fontconfig font configuration system. One of the blockers for this is the defoma backend in the Debian pango package for generating /etc/pango/pangox.aliases from the currently installed fonts. I read in these old threads that pangox.aliases is no longer used: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2004-December/msg00038.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2004-December/msg00039.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2004-December/msg00177.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2004-December/msg00180.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2004-December/msg00181.html Is that the case? The above mails are not exactly clear on that. pango 1.24.5 still seems to contain code for reading pangox.aliases, but I wasn't able to see from the NEWS file if it is still used by pango. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
