Package: wnpp Serverity: normal I intend to orphan the xfs-xtt package.
Description: X-TrueType font server This package provide X-TrueType font server. This is compatible normal X font server, but added X-TrueType font handling scheme support instead of FreeType backend. XFree86 4.0's font server can handle TrueType too, but it can not handle TTCap. By using TTCap description, support for font transformations, such as slanting, adjusting glyph width, pseudo-bolding, etc. . xfs-xtt is a daemon that listens on a network port and serves X fonts to X servers (and thus to X clients). All X servers have the ability to serve locally installed fonts for themselves, but xfs makes it possible to offload that job from the X server, and/or have a central repository of fonts on a networked machine running xfs so that all the machines running X servers on a network do not require their own set of fonts. xfs may also be invoked by users to, for instance, make available X fonts in user accounts that are not available to the X server or to an already running system xfs-xtt. Note: After the xorg package is uploaded, I'll remove this package from sid when no one take over this package. Because... * Current xfree86's xfs package can handle TrueType fonts (but can not handle TTCap). * xorg's libXfont unified X-TrueType engine to FreeType engine. xorg's xfs also can handle TrueType fonts and can handle TTCap description. So, it is possible to replace the xfs-xtt. * xfs-xtt use X-TrueType engine. Maintenance of the X-TrueType engine has already stopped considerably before. Old X-TrueType engine code was dropped from source tree (on both xfree86 and xorg) -- ISHIKAWA Mutsumi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
