[db] tentatively reintroduce fallback for italic

2016-10-19T21:44:56+00:00

Fix assignment of LM series fonts. Currently these are broken because of
borked typosub identifiers like “8oblique” that prevent exact name
matching and at the same time exclude matching the (usable) subfamily.
Introduce a heuristic based on the italic angle value that assigns
italic as a fallback in these cases.

Test: https://bitbucket.org/phg/lua-la-tex-tests/src/857c83ca98cb35153979a0613d3a742bfd93f834/lua/tla-names-3-lm.lua

2016-10-17T05:44:46+00:00

The config option must go since the FF based code was removed already
some time ago.

[features,tool] fix subfont handling in file loading

2016-09-29T20:46:50+00:00

Subfont loading seems to have been broken for a while but no reports …

[tool] remove unnecessary modules

2016-09-29T19:24:44+00:00

These only make the loader emit warnings because of the missing runtime
environment. They weren’t needed to begin with.

[main,tool] fix version check

2016-09-28T10:09:17+00:00

Fixes #382

Luaotfload will fail with an up to date Luatex on account on a buggy
minimum version check. Many thanks to @davidcarlisle for the report.

[features,parsers] add extremely important feature

2016-09-27T21:38:43+00:00

Credits to Taco for the talk at Kalenberg that inspired the feature.

Extending the parser is required so we can have proper name for the
feature.

Happy Luatex 1.0.0
