updating documentation to warn about potential binary compatibility problems
2003-09-01 23:18:03 +02:00
=====================================================================
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
During development that followed the 2.1.4 release, some
unfortunate changes to the source code did break *binary*
compatibility of the library with previous releases. This had the
potential to severely break any system where a version of FreeType
was installed from recent CVS sources.
We did undo the changes, and everything should be completely
compatible now. However, due to other subtleties too long to be
explained here, there may still be a tiny risk that the current
sources break some rare applications.
This package is thus FreeType 2.1.5 release candidate 1 and has
been released for testing. If you install it on your system, please
be certain to be able to install a previous version in the case
where something would go wrong.
We will make the official 2.1.5 release as soon as we're convinced
that it will not break anything.

Special notes to Unix users
===========================
fixing the autohinter: the advance of auto-hinted glyphs in mono-spaced fonts was incorrect

* doc/INSTALL.UNX: Cleaned up. Other minor fixes/beautifying/formatting.
2003-04-21 15:30:27 +02:00
Please read the file "docs/UPGRADE.UNX". It contains important
information regarding the installation of FreeType on Unix systems,
* README: udpated * README.UNX: removed (now replaced by docs/INSTALL.UNX) * src/pshinter/pshalgo3.c: the hinter now performs as in 2.1.3 and will ignore stem quantization only when FT_LOAD_TARGET_SMOOTH is used * src/base/ftobjs.c: changed the default computations to include rounding in all cases, this is required to provide accurate kerning data when native TrueType hinting is enabled. * src/type1/t1load.c: the Type 1 loader now accepts more general names according to the Postscript spec (the previous one was too restrictive)

especially GNU based operating systems like GNU/Linux.

Please report bugs by e-mail to `devel@freetype.org'. Don't forget
to send a detailed explanation of the problem -- there is nothing
worse than receiving a terse message that only says "it doesn't
work".
