Details

As discussed at length in https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/issues/2992, fontforge 20161012 crashes when using Python 3.6, which Arch now ships with. A patch fixing this problem has been merged upstream, but is not yet in any release: https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/pull/3046. Any chance of including this patch in the Arch package until the next release so that fontforge is usable again?
