./print/dvipsk, DVI-to-PostScript translator

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2024.1, Package name: dvipsk-2024.1, Maintainer: minskim

dvips takes a DVI file file[.dvi] produced by TeX (or by some other
processor such as GFtoDVI) and converts it to PostScript, normally
sending the result directly to the (laser)printer. The DVI file may
be specified without the .dvi extension. Fonts used may either be
resident in the printer or defined as bitmaps in PK files, or a
`virtual' combination of both. If the mktexpk program is installed,
dvips will automatically invoke METAFONT to generate fonts that don't
already exist.

dvipsk: update to 2024.1

Log message:
Mass-change BUILD_DEPENDS to TOOL_DEPENDS outside mk/.

Almost all uses, if not all of them, are wrong, according to the
semantics of BUILD_DEPENDS (packages built for target available for
use _by_ tools at build-time) and TOOL_DEPEPNDS (packages built for
host available for use _as_ tools at build-time).

No change to BUILD_DEPENDS as used correctly inside buildlink3.

By default, do not attempt automatic media adjustment for rotated paper
sizes; the new option –landscaperotate re-enables.

texlive: update to TeXLive 2021

General:
* Donald Knuth’s changes for his 2021 tuneup of TeX and Metafont are
  incorporated (https://tug.org/TUGboat/tb42-1/tb130knuth-tuneup21.pdf). They
  are also available on CTAN as the knuth-dist and knuth-local packages. As
  expected, the fixes are for obscure cases and do not affect any behavior in
  practice.
* Except in original TeX: if \tracinglostchars is set to 3 or more, missing
  characters will result in an error, not just a message in the log file, and
  the missing character code will be shown in hex.
* Except in original TeX: a new integer parameter \tracingstacklevels, if
  positive, and \tracingmacros is also positive, causes a prefix indicating the
  macro expansion depth to be output on each relevant log line (e.g., ~.. at
  depth 2). Also, macro logging is truncated at a depth ≥ the parameter value.

Aleph: The Aleph-based LaTeX format, named lamed, has been removed. The aleph
  binary itself is still included and supported.

LuaTeX:
* Lua 5.3.6.
* Callback for nesting level used in \tracingmacros, as generalized variant
  of the new \tracingstacklevels.
* Mark math glyphs as protected to prevent processing as text.
* Removed width/ic compensation for traditional math code path.

MetaPost:
* SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable support for reproducible output.
* Avoid wrong final % in mpto.
* Document -T option, other fixes to manual.
* Value of epsilon changed in binary and decimal modes, so mp_solve_rising_cubic
  works as expected.

pdfTeX:
* New primitives \pdfrunninglinkoff and \pdfrunninglinkon; e.g., for
  disabling generation of links in headers and footers.
* Warn instead of aborting when “\pdfendlink ended up in different nesting
  level than \pdfstartlink”.
* Dump \pdfglyphtounicode assignments in fmt file.
* Source: poppler support removed, as it was too hard to keep in sync with
  upstream. In native TL, pdfTeX has always used libs/xpdf, which is cut-down
  and adapted code from xpdf.

XeTeX: Fixes for math kerning.

Dvipdfmx:
* Ghostscript is now invoked safely by default; to override (assuming all
  input files are trusted), use -i dvipdfmx-unsafe.cfg. To use PSTricks with
  XeTeX, this is required, as in:
   xetex -output-driver="xdvipdfmx -i dvipdfmx-unsafe.cfg -q -E" ...
* If an image file is not found, exit with bad status.
* Extended special syntax for color support.
* Specials for manipulating ExtGState.
* Compatibility specials pdfcolorstack and pdffontattr.
* Experimental support for dviluatex’s extended fnt_def.
* Support new feature of virtual font to fallback Japanese font definition.

Dvips:
* Default PostScript document title is now the basename of the input file,
  and can be overridden with the new option -title.
* If an .eps or other image file is not found, exit with bad status.
* Support new feature of virtual font to fallback Japanese font definition.

Log message:
dvipsk: don't use texconfig in build

This package was using "texconfig dvips paper ${LOWER_PAPERSIZE}" to
set the default papersize for dvips.  It seems that texconfig has been
broken for this option at least for some time so was a noop.
Disable at this time to remove a circular dependency.
Needs to be revisited.
