Hi,
long time ago I promised to create packages suitable for rpmfusion for
following :
Request: freetype (with patches to support subpixel rendering and
bytecode interpreter)
Summary: A free and portable font rendering engine
URL:
http://www.freetype.org
Why not in Fedora: Patent issues regarding cleartype filtering and
bytecode interpreter
Notes: this package should be part of a logical group of other patched
packages supporting better subpixel rendering in Fedora, to bring up the
font rendering to the level of Ubuntu, Windows XP/Vista and MacOS/X. These
packages are: cairo, freetype, fontconfig, libXft (and maybe pixman, this
should be checked). Source packages already exist with patches supporting
these features for all the above packages at: ftp://brebs.me.uk/fedora/10/.
