[lsb-discuss] LSB conference call agenda (Tuesday, March 6, 11am ET)

[Tracy Camp]

I think the issue is that the various scripts you are maintaining have 
been updated to support some of the font lib imports in my bzr branch. 
I'm not sure how well the updated scripts are going to merge at this 
point.

As well I never did quite get xft to import quite correctly.  The previous 
fontconfig import wasn't doing any favors in this case since it referenced 
structs on either side of it in the font stack so importing its stack 
neighbors became 'hard' from 'non-trivial'.
