Bug ID: 1806271 Summary: dropped stix-math-fonts subpackage causes broken dependencies Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Status: NEW Component: stix-fonts Assignee: nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net Reporter: decathorpe@gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net, paul@frixxon.co.uk Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
With the transition to new forge-based fonts macros, the stix-math-tonts subpackage was dropped, but some packages depend on that. They are now not installable on fedora 32+ because that package is gone (only Obsoleted, not Provided).
This affects at least sagemath and texlive-stix.

--- Comment #1 from Nicolas Mailhot nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net --- I can provide stix-math-fonts it if you want.
Note, however, that STIX was bumped from 1.1.0 to 2.0.2, and upstream completely redid its font structure between STIX 1 and STIX 2. Just providing the old package name won’t magically undo upstream changes (the package ships with fontconfig aliasing rules to correctly transition apps from STIX 1 to STIX 2, but some TEX engines are notorious for not using fontconfig).
STIX was, with Droid, one of the complex fonts that illustrated the limits of our previous packaging approach and made me start the guidelines change 2 years ago. I should work smoother now (I understand that does not help you much right now:( ).

--- Comment #2 from Nicolas Mailhot nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net --- Also, if someone needs it, I can create a compat STIX1 package. It‘s way easier using new guidelines. It will shuffle things a bit compared to F31 STIX, but it will keep the same upstream font files.
However, upstream did not change things on a whim. They refactored STIX in 2018 to fix numerous technical problems. A STIX 1 compat package would reintroduce those problems in Fedora.

--- Comment #3 from Fabio Valentini decathorpe@gmail.com --- Thanks for the clarifications. I think the maintainers of sagemath and texlive-stix are probably the people who know what their packages need.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1806271
--- Comment #4 from Fabio Valentini decathorpe@gmail.com --- I've added the primary maintainers of both sagemath and texlive to CC so they're aware of the changes.

--- Comment #5 from Nicolas Mailhot nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net --- (In case that was not clear: STIX is definitely *not* a candidate for a F31 backport)

--- Comment #6 from Ian McInerney ian.s.mcinerney@ieee.org --- This is blocking clean upgrades to F32 currently, so it would be nice to sort this out before F32 release.
