Package: harfbuzz Version: 1.7.2-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu bionic ubuntu-patch
Dear maintainers, In Ubuntu we found a regression in freetype 2.8.1 due to unaligned memory access on armhf (when running on certain chips in certain kernel configurations) that was only discovered because it caused harfbuzz to fail to build on this architecture. It would have been useful to catch this regression much earlier, if the harfbuzz build-time test suite were run at the time the new version of freetype was introduced, instead of later as part of an archive rebuild test. So I've added a simple build-only autopkgtest to harfbuzz in Ubuntu; please see the attached patch, and please consider whether you think this would also be useful to have in Debian. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
