+  During development that followed the 2.1.4 release, some
+  unfortunate changes to the source code did break *binary*
+  compatibility of the library with previous releases. This had the
+  potential to severely break any system where a version of FreeType
+  was installed from recent CVS sources.
+
+  We did undo the changes, and everything should be completely
+  compatible now. However, due to other subtleties too long to be
+  explained here, there may still be a tiny risk that the current
+  sources break some rare applications.

+  This package is thus FreeType 2.1.5 release candidate 1 and has
+  been released for testing. If you install it on your system, please
+  be certain to be able to install a previous version in the case
+  where something would go wrong.
+
+  We will make the official 2.1.5 release as soon as we're convinced
+  that it will not break anything.
