Change the Desktop release criteria for ARM and AArch64
The following release criteria changes are now present in Fedora 32:
-
Drop Xfce on 32-bit ARM from release-blocking desktops.
-
Workstation on
AArch64
to release-blocking desktops.
The new additions to release-blocking deliverables include IoT
and
CoreOS
architecture. To reduce the overall test coverage and
release-blocking desktops, it no longer blocks on the 32-Bit ARM Xfce
Desktop spin and adds Workstation
on AArch64 as a release-blocking
desktop.
As a result, this change reduces the release-blocking desktops and potential for blocker bugs.
Selected bitmap fonts are now available as OpenType
In Fedora 31, the Pango library switched to the HarfBuzz back end, which does not support bitmap fonts. Applications that use Pango for font rendering, such as GNOME Terminal, can no longer use bitmap fonts.
This release introduces new packages that provide selected bitmap fonts converted to the OpenType format. This format is supported by Pango.
The following packages now provide OpenType versions of bitmap fonts:
-
bitmap-lucida-typewriter-opentype-fonts
-
bitmap-fangsongti-opentype-fonts
-
bitmap-console-opentype-fonts
-
bitmap-fixed-opentype-fonts
-
ucs-miscfixed-opentype-fonts
-
terminus-fonts
You cannot install both the bitmap and OpenType versions of the packages,
with the exception of terminus-fonts
, which includes both formats.
Fonts language Provides moved to the langpacks package
This change aims to provide more reliable, predictable, and consistent fonts
installation as well as better user experience around font dependencies. To
achieve this, the change moves the Provides: font(:lang=*)
tags into the
langpacks-core-font-\*
sub-packages of the langpacks
package. The
sub-packages already obtain the default font, locale and input-method for
each language. As a result, whenever a missing glyph font installation is
requested, the langpacks-core-font-<lang>
package will be installed and
will get the default font using the existing Requires:
tag.
