#29629: xpdf should not use t1 lib
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Reporter: gnwiii@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: t1lib patch | Port: xpdf
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Upstream http://foolabs.com/xpdf/download.html states:
Xpdf 3.02pl6 was released 2011-mar-21. Because of potential security holes
in t1lib, we no longer recommend using it. You can configure Xpdf with
"configure --with-t1-library=no". The 3.02pl6 Linux binaries are built
without t1lib. There are no updates to the source code or Windows binaries
(which never used t1lib).
"configure --with-t1-library=no" should be the default, making t1lib
optional.
