Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 16304
no font display using 16 bit display and Vera
Last modified: 2004-02-07 07:05:47 UTC
no font display using 16 bit display and Vera. Start the current Solaris OpenOffice setup. It installs Vera to /var/tmp/* . Display to a 16 bit Linux display does not show any glyph. Seems that Antialiased display to 16 fails without using RENDER (the used Solaris box does not have libXrender).
Duplicate to issue 15743 (binary incompatibility with old FT lib) which got worked arounded by a patch in CWS VCL13 = m9s1. Please verify on your system. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 15743 ***
The core problem is the same as issue 15743, but the code that determined which version of the libfreetype library was installed failed on unxsols4, so it was assumed a version <= 2.0.9 was used, because the "FT_Library_Version" API call was introduced with 2.1.0.
http://gsl.openoffice.org/source/browse/gsl/vcl/source/glyphs/gcach_ftyp.cxx.diff?r1=1.92.10.4&r2=1.92.10.5 fixes the problem.
HDU->MH: please verify.
