Description Joe Da Silva 2013-05-07 03:49:30 CEST
Description of problem:
Current package is from 2009 and based on version5.2 of Nameslist.txt.
There are new packages updated with version6.2 of Nameslist.txt available now.

http://packages.debian.org/experimental/libuninameslist-dev
http://packages.debian.org/experimental/libuninameslist0

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Latest update is now version 0.3.20130501-1

How reproducible:
When you "hover" the mouse over various letters in FontForge, there is a pop-up displaying name annotations describing that character, for example: if you hover the mouse over the main window above the letter "B" you should see an name description of:
66 0x42 U+0042 "B" LATIN CAPITAL LETTER B
and annotations of:
"â (script capital b - 212C)"

Where the new update should be noticeable is in the updates to version6.2 from the earlier version5.2, for example, character "#" and "$" have significant more additional annotations:
 /* 0023 */ { "NUMBER SIGN","	= pound sign, hash, crosshatch, octothorpe"
 	"	x (l b bar symbol - 2114)"
	"	x (music sharp sign - 266F)"
	"	~ 0023 FE0E text style"
	"	~ 0023 FE0F emoji style"},
/* 0024 */ { "DOLLAR SIGN","	= milréis, escudo"
	"	* used for many peso currencies in Latin America and elsewhere"
 	"	* glyph may have one or two vertical bars"
	"	* other currency symbol characters: 20A0-20BA"
 	"	x (currency sign - 00A4)"
	"	x (peso sign - 20B1)"
 	"	x (heavy dollar sign - 1F4B2)"},

...and similarly, many other updates have been added to other various characters listed here: https://github.com/fontforge/libuninameslist/commits/master

Assigning to all packagers collectively since there is no registered maintainer for this package.

Comment 2 Joe Da Silva 2020-09-13 20:38:24 CEST
This bug can be closed - mga8beta2 is using a pretty recent libuninameslist now.
Comment 3 Joe Da Silva 2023-07-12 05:34:41 CEST
changed status to resolved (Cauldron has latest stable version 20221022).

Resolution: (none) => FIXED
Status: NEW => RESOLVED
