Wrote a README

Open tbekolay opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

I forked in order to update this repo to update to the newest Infinality patches, but they're for freetype 2.4.12, which doesn't seem to be packaged for Debian (unstable skipped to 2.5.1 it seems). Probably best to wait for Infinality to patch that version. In any case, I'd already written this README, so I figured I would send it in.

The original infinality maintainer is busy for some time and has asked for help from public for maintaining his patches for gnu/linux and binary packages for fedora. I don't expect the infinality packages to be updated anytime soon without some public help. I assume bohomil(unofficial arch Linux infinality maintainer) has showed some interest at infinality forums for maintaining patches. If you are interested I assume you can collaborate with them to have a Debian binary repository at infinality web site. I do not have the skills to maintain a Debian binary repo and was not able to accept the invitation some months ago.

Thanks for the info @hadrons123! I wasn't aware that they're looking for a maintainer. I'll go to the infinality forums and see if I can help!
