Re: Goals for 0.4
Probably, one will still need to install fontconfig. Maybe you could try out if emacs works for you without fontconfig. It did, to my surprise, for me. I just upgraded my profile and remove gs-fonts, and Emacs still displays properly. So unless there’s an evil cache somewhere, I’d say that it works. I can confirm Emacs working fine on a clean install without installing any additional font packages, which I take to confirm your findings. Best wishes, Alex

I would volunteer for this one. The main problem that gtk+ applications would not find a font unless the user installed gs-fonts should be solved by the latest commit. I added gs-fonts as an input to fontconfig and added it to its configuration file. Andreas

Re: Goals for 0.4
jema...@gnu.org (Jose E. Marchesi) skribis: I just realized that we can do even better: have --list-generations output recutils-formatted data (using ‘object-fields’). Then, if we do it right, the output can just be piped to ‘recsel’ to select entries of a certain age, to display specific fields, etc. Like: generation-number: 1 date: 2013-05-07 However, I don’t know exactly how to represent both the generations and the list of packages in each generation in a single recutils stream. José, how can the relations between “generation” records and “package” records be expressed? You can have two record sets: one for generations, one for packages. A foreign key can relate them. Something like this: Perfect, thanks! Ludo’.
