Changes not in Debian yet:
fontforge (0.0.20080927-1) experimental; urgency=low

[ Kęstutis Biliūnas ]
* New upstream release (Closes: #496048, #393487). Actually the latter bug
was fixed much earlier, but was forgotten to close.
* First release from the pristine upstream tarball. Previously, the binary
packages was generated from the ourselves made tarball, which was
assembled from the several upstream tarballs. Now this is splited out
into a separate source packages.
* Added MIME support: updated the .desktop file with MimeType entries and
added .sharedmimeinfo file.
* Removed the file debian/fontforge.desktop. Now we are using the file
Packaging/fontforge.desktop from the upstream.
* debian/control:
- bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.0. No changes required;
- added the new libfontforge1 and libfontforge-dev binary packages.
- added the python-fontforge package to Suggests for fontforge binary
package.
* debian/rules:
- added the option --enable-devicetables and --with-type3 in the fontforge
configure stage.
- added a case check to check if the package is going to be built on Ubuntu
or Debian. Thanks to Arne Götje for suggestion.
- added a comparison of the installed libtool version and the libtoolize
option "--install", when libtool version is > 1.9b.
* debian/patches:
- the patches refreshed with quilt option '-p1'. This should make the
package work with the new source package format "3.0 (quilt)".
(closes: #485247). Thanks to Raphael Hertzog for
the bug report.
- disabled patch 999_disable_xinput.diff as this makes fontforge unusable
when XMODIFIERS is defined, which is needed for many East Asian
languages. Thanks to Arne Götje for suggestion.
- added the patch 023_fix_desktop_file for adjusting the desktop file for
Debian.
- added the patch 024_svgkern for fixing the SVG fonts processing
(Closes: #500543).
* Removed the file debian/README and added the debian/README.source file
explaining how to edit or create the patches.
* Added the file source.lintian-overrides because the upstream forget to
remove the file config.log.
