[Bug 798871] New: Please add Vedic Extensions to Lohit fonts

Summary: Please add Vedic Extensions to Lohit fonts https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798871 Summary: Please add Vedic Extensions to Lohit fonts Product: Fedora Version: 16 Platform: Unspecified OS/Version: Unspecified Status: NEW Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Component: lohit-fonts AssignedTo: extras-orphan(a)fedoraproject.org ReportedBy: samjnaa(a)gmail.com QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: petersen(a)redhat.com, extras-orphan(a)fedoraproject.org, pnemade(a)redhat.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, psatpute(a)redhat.com, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Classification: Fedora Story Points: --- Type: --- Regression: --- Mount Type: --- Documentation: --- Description of problem: It is very good that Red Hat / Fedora takes steps to update Lohit fonts with latest encoded Indic characters, especially Vedic characters included in Devanagari Extended block. (See https://www.redhat.com/archives/lohit-devel-list/2012-February/msg00011.html) As a Sanskrit/Vedic scholar I very much welcome this. However, it would be even greater if the separate Vedic characters that are encoded in the Vedic Extensions block (http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1CD0.pdf) created in Unicode 5.2 along with Devanagari Extended were also supported. As Devanagari is the script mainly used for Sanskrit and especially Vedic printings nowadays, it would be best to add the characters initially to the Lohit Devanagari font so that it can combine properly with the Devanagari characters. If at all there is future demand for the glyphs to be added to the font of another script (like Telugu etc which are also often used for Vedic texts in those areas) the glyphs can easily be copied to those fonts in the future. OpenType normally cannot join base characters from one font with combining marks from a different font. So a separate Lohit Vedic font with purely Vedic characters is not possible. As the glyphs from the Vedic Extensions block have very simple shapes, it would hopefully be easy to design those glyphs and add them to the fonts. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.5.1 How reproducible: Install Lohit Devanagari 2.5.1 font. Actual results: The Devanagari-specific Vedic characters especially from the Devanagari Extended block are available. The generic Vedic characters from the Vedic Extensions block are not available. Expected results: It is desirable to have the generic Vedic characters from the Vedic Extensions block also. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pango 1.26.0-1.fc12 i686 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open gedit 2. type any of chillu conjunct, eg: 0D28, 0D4D, 200D OR type a word ending with chillu conjunct, eg: 0D05, 0D35, 0D28, 0D4D, 200D 3. type any punctuation marks like "!", ".", ",", "'", "?" or SPACE 4. Press Backspace Actual results: When using Backspace after chillu conjunct followed by punctuation mark or SPACE, instead of deleting punctuation mark or SPACE only, the chillu conjunct also gets deleted. Expected results: When using Backspace after chillu conjunct followed by punctuation mark or SPACE, only the punctuation mark/SPACE should get deleted. Additional info: 1. This does not happen when chillu comes in between a word. eg: നന്‍മ (0D28, 0D28, 0D4D, 200D, 0D2E) 2. This issue is not present in oowriter and kwrite. When above steps are reproduced, deletions happens in correct order. Versions used: libicu-4.2.1-6.fc12 i686 qt-4.5.2-22.fc12 i686 3.

[Bug 507292] New: [RFE] Allow wildcards/regexps in rpm deps

Summary: [RFE] Allow wildcards/regexps in rpm deps https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=507292 Summary: [RFE] Allow wildcards/regexps in rpm deps Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: rpm AssignedTo: pmatilai(a)redhat.com ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: pmatilai(a)redhat.com, jnovy(a)redhat.com, ffesti(a)redhat.com, fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora (this is mostly a yum-level RFE, but it would be nice if we kept the same depsolving logic in both apps) The problem: Selecting a font is a multi-criterium operation. We need to match on font family, font style, language support, unicode support, etc. At any time all of just some of those selection criterii can be provided by the user or applications. To have features like font auto-installation work reliably, this matching needs to extend to the package database Right now rpm is only allowing to specify atomic provides, so we can have a font package that Provides font(dejavusans) and Provides font(:lang=el) but there is no warranty both those provides are belonging to the same font. There is no way to distinguish between a package that includes an actual greek dejavusans and a package that includes a dejavusans greek-less file and another totally different greek font To workaround this rpm limitation we've been asking packagers to put font files belonging to different font families in different packages. However: 1. many still don't 2. it's not technically possible for all font formats, for example the ttc font format allows mixing of fonts with different characteristics in a single file The ideal solution: Ability to have Provides like: font(comma-separated font name list|comma-separated style list|comma-separated lang list) (rough mockup that probably needs refining) And have deps like (dejavu|*|el) work in rpm (yes a font can declare many different names, be available in many different styles, cover many different languages) For ttc files we'd then generate one Provides for each font included in the ttc bundle -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
