Details

* package version(s)

20040727

* package release number

4

Description:

in the source package exist a file :

Adobe-CNS1.cidToUnicode

the newest PKGBUILD does not copy *.cidToUnicode to /usr/share/xpdf

as a result, when using xpdf to open a pdf which contain traditional chinese characters,
but without embed fonts, may cause whole ducument garbled and generate errors like:

Error: Couldn't find cidToUnicode file for the 'Adobe-CNS1' collection
Error: Unknown character collection 'Adobe-CNS1'



in previous revision ( pkgrel 3 ), use

cp -R * $_xpdfextdir

to copy source package files to /usr/share/xpdf,
but current PKGBUILD use `install` for every file except *.cidToUnicode

the same problem may also applied to other xpdf language support package like:
xpdf-chinese-simplified, xpdf-greek, xpdf-turkish...


This task depends upon
