The FreeType 2 backend and the latest version of mkfontscale are available from
http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/ Everybody can change his mind. The files are: xfree86-freetype-2.1.1.patch : imports FreeType 2.1.1 into XFree86; xfree86-freetype2-20020620.tar.gz : latest FreeType 2 backend; mkfontscale-20020618.tar.gz : latest version of mkfontscale. Instructions: $ rm -rf xc/extras/freetype2 xc/lib/font/FreeType xc/programs/mkfontscale untar freetype-2.1.1.tar.gz under /tmp $ mv /tmp/freetype-2.1.1 xc/extras/freetype2 apply xfree86-freetype-2.1.1.patch untar xfree86-freetype2-20020620.tar.gz untar mkfontscale-20020618.tar.gz $ make World Version 20020620 includes the patch I've just sent to the list. Neither the backend nor mkfontscale will build with versions of FreeType older than 2.1.1. For people using older versions of mkfontscale, please upgrade. Previous versions had a minor bug that interacts badly with a bug in FreeType 2.1.1; this version of mkfontscale should be immune. (For anyone interested: previous versions of mkfontscale failed to activate the right cmap. This was okay in 2.0.9, which would provide a default cmap which turned out to be the right one in most cases, but breaks in 2.1.1, which fails to do so.)
