Hi guys - I believe this is the correct mailing list for libpango.
I just updated from git master and noticed some big changes which seemed
unusual. I just wanted to check if these are correct or if something's
gone awry with my update...
Problem #1 - AFAICT the entire 'modules' subdirectory has been removed.
It looks like there's no longer any support for thai language / indic
language etc, etc. Is that correct? Or have those modules been moved
somewhere else?
Problem #2 - For building on Windows, certain folders were previously
determined (at run time) by querying the user's installation folder. In
particular, I'm thinking of pango_get_sysconf_subdirectory() and
pango_get_lib_subdirectory(). They each used to figure out where the
user's install directory was located and then calculate their respective
folders with respect to the found directory. However, in the latest
versions, these are now calculated with respect to a compile-time
constant (SYSCONFDIR or LIBDIR, as appropriate). The problem is that
when building for Windows, those values can't possibly be known at
compile time. The user's system isn't required to have any particular
drive (not even a C: drive).
Problem #3 - 'pango/pango-utils.c' used to contain functions such as
'read_config_file()' and 'read_config_system()'. These seem to have
gone now. Is that intentional?
I'm only querying these because they seem to be rather drastic
changes... ;-)
