Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.3.12, Package name: freetype2-2.3.12, Maintainer: rh

FreeType is a portable, high-quality software solution for digital
typography. FreeType 1.3.1 was the last release of the FreeType 1
engine, as the project is now switching to a new version dubbed FreeType
2. It has, among other things, several advantages over FreeType 1:

* A universal and simple API to manage font files
* Support for several font formats through loadable drivers
* Even more portable
* An improved anti-aliasing algorithm

This is a bugfix release for the 2.3 series, which brings considerable

small sizes. All users should upgrade.

Bump PKGREVISION.

Log message:
update to 2.3.9
changes:
-important bugfixes
-improved CID support

There was an ABI breakage between 2.3.7 and 2.3.8 which was reverted
in 2.3.9. The public 'PS_FontInfoRec' structure was expanded and
then shrunk. Applications compiled against 2.3.8 should work fine
with 2.3.9. Applications compiled against the new 2.3.9 can
theoretically exhibit problems if run against a 2.3.8 binary, if
some PS_FontInfo stuff is used. See the freetype release notes
for details. I didn't find any suspects for now. If one is found,
it should be changed to require 2.3.9, and PKGREV bumped.

Log message:
Simply and speed up buildlink3.mk files and processing.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
