Subject: Re: Pango Update in new binaries

Hello all,
I apologize if this question has already been asked.
Has the new version of pango been ported to the binaries on
mac/windows/linux? I noticed here
<https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2656> that there has
since been bug issues with a previous version that LilyPond has been
using,
and now there's been fixes to those bugs. I noticed its in the latest dev
release of LilyPond, but my question is: is it being retroactively
implemented in the stable release?
Hi Josh
Nobody replied to you.
According to a recent discussion in this list, it seems that the new Pango
version in GUB makes lilypond compile much faster. This would be another
good reason to make a 2.18.3 release. Unless 2.20 is close... What
developers think about it? (I'm cc-ing lilypond-devel).
I don't think an update to 2.18 just to pick up the updated Pango would be a
good idea. Updates to stable are there really to correct problems that
slipped through into the previous version, not to provide upgrades. If the
performance improvement is important, I would suggest using 2.19.18.
