A sentence for the problem statement could be:</div><div><br></div><div>The non-public CGFontGetGlyphPath function is deprecated in OSX 10.10 yosemite and results</div><div>in run-time problems for applications using cairo. The function is replaced with CoreText calls. </div><div>This breaks support for OSX 10.4. </div><div><br></div><div>However, please note that there was a discussion about using CoreText here:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84324">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84324</a></div><div><br></div><div>because it would break 10.4 support as far as I understand it. From my point of view breaking</div><div>10.4 when 10.10 which is the current OS version does not run is a problem that could/should be fixed later. </div><div>During the discussion there was nobody who could even test 10.4 as there was no system available running 10.4. </div><div><br></div><div>Friedrich</div><div><br></div><div><div><div>Am 07.11.2014 um 20:06 schrieb Bryce Harrington <<a href="mailto:bryce@osg.samsung.com">bryce@osg.samsung.com</a>>:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">On Wed, Nov 05, 2014 at 09:12:23AM +0100, Friedrich Beckmann wrote:<br><blockquote type="cite">Hi, are there any conclusions regarding the introduction of the patch to remove the call to CGFontGetGylphPath?<br><br>We currently have a problem to run pspp on yosemite because of that problem:<br><br><a href="https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?43469">https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?43469</a><br></blockquote><br>As I understand it, the patch in question that needs pulled is:<br><br> <a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=106845">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=106845</a><br><br>I usually don't tinker with fonts nor osx, but if the patch just needs<br>landed and everyone's cool with it, I can do so.
