Attached most recent version of patch against 8.51cvs (IIRC - it's been a while since I worked on this).

Should all be good to go, pending a final check, some extensive testing, and the build integration. gs's build system is unique, and I haven't had time to look at how to do it yet.

Note that to build gs with this patch you'll need to hack the Makefile to add -lfontconfig to LDFLAGS and add '#define HAVE_FONTCONFIG' to the top of gp_unix.c because the build integration is absent. You might also have to ensure that the fontconfig libs and headers are on LD_LIBRARY_PATH and CPATH, respectively. Again, this is only necessary because we're not using pkg-config to find fontconfig, since the build integration is missing.

This is not a Scribus bug, but its ok to have here to share the diffs. Has this work gone into GS? It'd be nice to get it there and close this.

Brilliant, thanks for letting me know. I've been meaning to get onto this for ages, but I always end up looking at gs's build system but have simply never got around to it.

I'll update the upstream gs bug so this round of bug tracker tag can continue. Oh, and so they can hopefully import the ESP GS patch.

This is not a Scribus bug, can we please get this pushed upstream and close this as not a bug.
