0.3.3+git20151209~webupd8 incorrectly displays some fonts #296

Closed worldowner closed 8 years ago

worldowner commented 8 years ago

System is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. After todays upgrade I have:

0.3.3+git20151209~webupd8~trusty and flash player 20.0.0.228 (distrubuted with Chrome). Since this upgrade vcenter displays fonts in wrong way: freshplugin-vcenter

The same page opened in Google Chrome works fine.

That was fixed in 8f5e6beea4d531c7172c7a65cd2e2e3eeae5ff4b.

There are two similar interfaces in PPAPI for font-related operations, and both have the same method available. PepperFlash was using one before, but switched to another in newer version.

Thank you for information.

Hi, I am seeing the same broken text as shown above. This is preventing me from using VCenter. I am using "freshplayerplugin 0.3.3+git20151006~webupd8~precise". I was wondering when this fixed version will make it into the official webupd8 Ubuntu PPA? Or should I open a bug through Launchpad? Thanks!

Or should I open a bug through Launchpad?

I think a bug on Launchpad won't make any harm. As far I know, @hotice did the packaging. Perhaps, he is busy or on vacation.

By the way, building a new version from source should not be very hard, although you'll need to install a number of dev packages. There are instructions in README file.

It seems fixed in 0.3.4 (if I'm not mistaken, the commit 8f5e6be is in the 0.3.4 tag) I uploaded 0.3.4 in Debian unstable a few days ago. It reaches testing today. So I uploaded to jessie-backports a few minutes ago. I do not know if the Ubuntu package is just synchronized with the Debian one or if a Ubuntu maintainer packages it separately. And I do not know the Ubuntu policy about updating packages in 14.04 LTS. Ask Ubuntu guys for that.

Webupd8 ppa now have 0.3.4+git20160215~webupd8~trusty1 which should have mentioned patch in it already. Version for Precise is still 0.3.3+git20151006~webupd8~precise, so it would be better to compile from source.
