#39574: harfbuzz doesn't use icu or graphite2 --------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: harfbuzz --------------------------+-------------------------- In harfbuzz 0.9.18 a new build system was introduced, and icu and graphite2 support, which had previously defaulted to on, now default to off. The NEWS file says: {{{ Overview of changes leading to 0.9.18 Tuesday, May 28, 2013 ===================================== New build system: - All unneeded code is all disabled by default, - Uniscribe and CoreText shapers can be enabled with their --with options, - icu_le and old shapers cannot be enabled for now, - glib, freetype, and cairo will be detected automatically. They can be force on/off'ed with their --with options, - icu and graphite2 are default off, can be enabled with their --with options, Moreover, ICU support is now build into a separate library: libharfbuzz-icu.so, and a new harfbuzz-icu.pc is shipped for it. Distros can enable ICU now without every application on earth getting linked to via libharfbuzz.so. For distros I recommend that they make sure they are building --with-glib --with-freetype --with-cairo, --with-icu, and optionally --with-graphite2; And package harfbuzz and harfbuzz-icu separately. }}} In particular note the recommendation in the last line to package harfbuzz-icu separately. I'll see if I can make that into a separate subport. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39574> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
