Overview of changes leading to 2.7.0 Saturday, July 25, 2020 ==================================== - Use an implementation for round that always rounds up, some minor fluctuations are expected on var font specially when hb-ot callback is used. - Fix an AAT's `kerx` issue on broken rendering of Devanagari Sangam MN. - Remove AAT's `lcar` table support from _get_ligature_carets API, not even much use on macOS installed fonts (only two files). GDEF support is the recommended one and expected to work properly after issues fixed two releases ago. - Minor memory fixes to handle OOM better specially in hb-ft. - Minor .so files versioning scheme change and remove stable/unstable scheme differences, was never used in practice (always default to stable scheme). - We are now suggesting careful packaging of the library using meson, https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/wiki/Notes-on-migration-to-meson for more information. - Distribution package URL is changed, either use GitHub generated tarballs, `https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz` or, even more preferably use commit hash of the release and git checkouts like, `git+https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz#commit=$commit` Overview of changes leading to 2.6.8 Monday, June 22, 2020 ==================================== - New API to fetch glyph alternates from GSUB table. - hb-coretext build fix for macOS < 10.10. - Meson build fixes, cmake port removal is postponed but please prepare for it and give us feedback. Autotools is still our main build system however please consider experimenting with meson also for packaging the library. - New API: +hb_ot_layout_lookup_get_glyph_alternates() Overview of changes leading to 2.6.7 Wednesday, June 3, 2020 ==================================== - Update to Unicode 13.0.0. - Fix hb_ot_layout_get_ligature_carets for fonts without lcar table, it was completely broken for all the other fonts since 2.1.2. - As a part of our migration to meson, this release will be the last one to provide cmake port files but autotools still is our main build system. There is a possibility that the next version or the after be released using meson.
