Package: perl-tk
Version: 1:804.027-7
Severity: normal
Tk can be compiled with xft support, which allows for anti aliasing and
using all fonts accessible to xft, including TrueType.
Although this might have gone to "wishlist", it's more than that in my
view. It's not about programs looking nice fonts; it's about most of the
tk-programs having awful, almost unreadable, scaled bitmap fonts. Just
install perl-tk and run the program "widget". If the windows of this
program have fonts that look nice on your system, then there is another
configuration issue (extra font packages installed?) -- but in any case,
anti aliasing will not be supported.
I have been using perl-tk with xft support for a while now, and it seems
both stable and well-working.
Everything that needs to be done is to use
$(PERL) Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor PERL=$(PERL)
instead of
$(PERL) Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor PERL=$(PERL) XFT=1
in the debian/rules file.
