Package: ttf-tmuni Version: 0.0.20040806-1.2 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch
A while back (see [1]) there was a discussion about a new version already packaged and ready to be uploaded; problem was that fontsize become too big, especially for the graphical installer. I found out the cause [2] and the solution was to strip not needed glyphs out of the udeb. It was never implemented and apparently everyone (including myself) forgot about that message. The attached patch fixes the size problem. Please review it and upload the new package regards, Davide [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-b...@lists.debian.org/msg99313.html [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-b...@lists.debian.org/msg101251.html
