I don't think Qt3 will be ever fixed to support .otf.
I made bug reports about the lack of .otf support in Qt3 years ago.
Qt4 supports it now but I doubt that this will be backported to Qt3.
That's my expectation, too.
If the conversion in the package is a problem, at most, we can provide a conversion script in the package so that the user can do it manually if needed. But I'd like to avoid this either, obviously.
Do you still remember what was exactly the problem in Qt3? I have only a vague memory that we talked about this before a lunch :) Is it about qt3 taking the bi-width or zero-width or...?
I pursued this problem a bit more. A bad news is that it's actually no Qt3-issue but rather about fontconfig / freetype. A good news is that there is already a workaround for such a problem. Simply setting globaladvance to false for these fonts should suffice. I changed the spec file again to package OTF files and added a config file to override that attribute. The packages were checked into M17N:Devel again now. Please let me know if you see the similar problems again even with the new packages. thanks, Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+help@opensuse.org
