[DejaVu-fonts] Problem with 2.36 release + new release upcoming to fix this

[Ben L. <ben...@gm...>]

Hi everyone,

There has been an error in the uploaded source file for the 2.36 release. The 
condensed typefaces all have empty glyphs, so if you're using those to build 
the ttf files, you get blank text when using a condensed typeface.

The released files with the already built ttf fonts are correct, and it's those 
that most people download and use who directly download from us, but if you're 
building from source, you'll get into this problems. This means though that 
many package repositories for Linux distros will get affected, as shown in the 
bug report at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97081

We're going to make a new release shortly to get the correct files out. 
Depending on time contstraints, the new release should be out this weekend at 
the latest.

Until the new release has happened, the repositories will be frozen again.

Ben
