Updated: unifont, unifont-fonts, unifont-viewer 15.0.05
The following packages have been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution: * unifont 15.0.05 * unifont-viewer15.0.05 * unifont-fonts 15.0.05 GNU Unifont is a Unicode font with a glyph for every visible Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane code point and more, with supporting utilities to modify the font. The Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane covers the first 64K Unicode code points. NOTE This is the last Unifont major release which will include Truetype format Unifont by default. It is the first Cygwin major release which also includes Opentype format Unifont. As these fonts are bitmap glyphs rendered into modern font formats, both formats should render the same glyphs. All modern systems support both Opentype and Truetype format fonts, so there should be few or no issues if future releases provide only Opentype format Unifont, which are also less than half the file size of the Truetype format. If anyone encounters issues using the Opentype format Unifont in place of the Truetype format Unifont, please let us know before the next major release, so we can address any issues, or possibly continue to also provide the Truetype format Unifont. For more information see the project home page: https://unifoundry.com/unifont/ For recent changes, see below or read /usr/share/doc/unifont/NEWS after installation. See also Release Notes under: https://unifoundry.com/unifont/index.html https://unifoundry.com/unifont/unifont-utilities.html 2023-06-03 15.0.05 * New Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00..U+D7A3) contributed by Minseo Lee. Generated with his modifications of three combining patterns in the johab2ucs2 Perl script. * Modified U+5829 and U+6FF9 Chinese glyphs. 2023-05-28 15.0.04 * Adjustments to Greek and Coptic letters. * Adjustments to two heart glyphs. * Added Engsvanáli (U+E100..U+E14F) CSUR glyphs. 2023-05-21 15.0.03 * Fixed a typo in src/Makefile that could affect "make install". * Install unifont_all.hex in $(PKGDEST) directory. 2023-05-20 15.0.02 * N.B.: This is the last planned version to build TrueType font files as part of the standard font build with make BUILDFONT=1 In the future, only OpenType font files will be part of the ordinary font building using the hex2otf program. TrueType fonts will have to be built manually using: cd font make truetype * Minor update to allow for separate building of TrueType and OpenType fonts. This is in preparation for the future removal of TrueType font files from default font builds, in preference for OpenType font files. That change is planned for the release of Unifont 15.1.01, which will correspond to the release of the Unicode 15.1.0 standard scheduled for September 2023. * Added Doxygen annotation to C programs and corresponding ".h" header files. Annotated output is generated in a new "doxygen" subdirectory. Doxygen output consists of a browsable set of HTML pages and a hyperlinked PDF document. * Updates to make files to fix issues with redundant building under some circumstances. * Added 196 Plane 2 and Plane 3 Chinese ideographs drawn by æ¹ è¿æ to the basic Unifont font files for coverage of the General Standard Chinese Characters set. Also added biang glyphs drawn by Ming Fan. * Fullwidth CJK characters that appeared to be boldface in the range U+FF00..U+FFEF were updated using glyphs from Wen Quan Yi, with some modifications. 2022-09-13 15.0.01 * Update for Unicode 15.0.0 release. * "make install" now installs Unifont OpenType font files in the same directory as TrueType fonts by default. The intention is to remove TrueType fonts file from the "install" target for the Unicode 16.0.0 release unless there is a reason to keep them. * Existing Unicode scripts in Unifont maintain complete coverage. * Under ConScript Unicode Registry (UCSUR) scripts added: - U+E1D0..U+E1FF Syai - U+E360..U+E37F Sarkai - U+ED80..U+EDAF Iranic. * New Unicode 15.0.0 Plane 1 scripts: - U+10EFD..U+10EFF Arabic Extended-C - U+11B00..U+11B5F Devanagari Extended-A - U+11F00..U+11F5F Kawi - U+1D2C0..U+1D2DF Kaktovik Numerals - U+1E030..U+1E08F Cyrillic Exntended-D - U+1E4D0..U+1E4FF Nag Mundari.

Python 2.7 is the last python2 version, which was sunsetted on January 1, 2020. [...] 3) There might also still be some other packages lurking which just install a script with a shebang containing 'python', and assume that python is python2. I don't know how we could identify those. The remaining cases of packages which have a dependency on python and/or python2 are either this (packages which contain a python script with a python shebang line), or the other case which I hadn't previously considered - a package which contain an executable or shared library linked with libpython2.7.dll. So, again I need inspect these to determine what should happen to them. So here's the list, with *tentative* notes of the disposition for each package. As before, I might look at rebuilding some of the more important packages, as time permits, and some of these are candidates for removal if not updated, but obviously adoptions and input on what is no longer useful is welcomed! So, I think I've more or less come to the end of packages which seems worthwhile for me to rebuild and/or update. (There's several things which I haven't updated because their dependencies also need updating - usually glib, which definitely needs attending to, but I'm not going to pull on that thread right now...) I think the next step is to remove the python27 package itself. This will make it impossible to install anything which requires it on new installations (existing installations which already have the package installed will be uneffected). Once the wailing, rending of garments and gnashing of teeth has died down, I can remove the python2 modules and bindings at leisure. Marco, As python maintainer, any thoughts on when to do this? Anything you want to get done before that?
duplicity 1.2.3-1
The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution as release: * duplicity-1.2.3-1 Duplicity backs directories by producing encrypted tar-format volumes and uploading them to a remote or local file server. Because duplicity uses librsync, the incremental archives are space efficient and only record the parts of files that have changed since the last backup. Because duplicity uses GnuPG to encrypt and/or sign these archives, they will be safe from spying and/or modification by the server. This package is the latest upstream version. Any feedback is appreciated. For changes see https://gitlab.com/duplicity/duplicity/-/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md Please send questions or concerns to the main Cygwin mailing list as usual.
