Re: [Fontforge-devel] fontforge 20040404 segfaults on OS X

[Chanop Silpa-A. <ch...@sy...>]

This bug seems to be solved with FreeType 2.1.8; thank you David,
Werner.

 FreeType ChangeLog:
  - PS glyphs  which  use  the   `hintmask'  operator  haven't  been
    rendered correctly in some cases.


BTW, I am about to upload 20040425 to Debian; so, George, you could
update your page about debian binary to

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/fontforge.html .


Best regards,

Chanop
