Bug#1035857: texlive-fonts-extra: broken font symlinks for junicode

Further, documents that use the OpenType features of Junicode 1 (aside from basics like kerning and standard ligatures) may not be displayed properly when changed over to Junicode 2." I guess it would have been better to create fonts-junicode2 and then slowly phase out fonts-junicode, when v2 left beta stage. I could simply fix the links and point them to the v2 OTF fonts. This could be even done now. This would give Debian users the v2 fonts but I don't know if they are compatible to the Junicode related files in texlive-fonts-extra. Junicode v2 wasn't even uploaded to CTAN yet. I guess it is a better idea to stay with Junicode 1 for now and re-integrate them into tfe after bookworm.. fonts-alegreya-sans will not be in bookworm (and hasn't been in bullseye), thus /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/huerta/alegreya also contains broken symlinks. Well, I tend to say "this is not my fault". I may revert my decision after bookworm. H. -- sigfault

> If you say the broken symlinks are not really a problem for bookworm (and Broken symlinks in the TEXMF dirs are not a problem, since kpathsea will ignore them. So the worst thing is that some font is not available, that is hardly a problem since the fonts are not generally used.

If you say the broken symlinks are not really a problem for bookworm (and hard to fix), feel free to downgrade the severity and People trying to use that font, would need to install a package from unstable. Until now there was no complaint (except you). Best thing we could do is to fix the issue in fonts-alegreya-sans. I tried so by reporting to upstream, but currently there is not much move. postpone a fix for it to trixie. "trixie"? First release for years, not starting with "b". I started already confusing the code names. ;-) H. -- -- sigfault

I planned to fix that in the past (move files from t-f-e-links to t-f-e), see commit 7fc1a4238a23a5bc0a7c76fd6465906d48601a0a . Unfortunately at the same time I moved that some files into the other direction, so I had to revert that step in 42a992dff6dd2b54ce0ffc10367a29913e062c0b, else there would be no upgrade path from bullseye to bookworm. I have to delay the fix to post-bookworm. The Junicode link names also look broken to me, like they got truncated somehow, and missing the file extension. Especially the first one: "Junicod". Yes, this is definitely a Typo, but correcting them does not solve an issue. fonts-alegreya-sans will not be in bookworm (and hasn't been in bullseye), thus /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/huerta/alegreya also contains broken symlinks. Was introduced in 5a1a62fe981bf67e743592ba689c2f18853a8886. Unfortunately I noticed to late that fonts-alegreya-sans is RC buggy and I downgraded the Dep to recommend: 42f75ab3ead843b6b04edc6f4aed7498cb53101f . This could be reverted before bookworm, I'd need to build a new orig.tar.gz as the font files are black listed. Is it really that urgent? Hilmar -- sigfault
