• FreeType 2 for Debian
  ---------------------
  
  Hurray!  FreeType 2 is finally here!  :-)  The "7" in the package name
  "libfreetype7" is the major soname of FreeType 2's libfreetype.
  
  According to the FreeType 2 FAQ,
  
      The FreeType 2 API is a lot simpler than the one in 1.x while being
      much more powerful. We thus encourage you to adapt your source code
      to it as this should not involve much work.
  
  So please try your best to help migrate your software to FreeType 2.
  
  FreeType 2.0.x can co-exist peacefully with FreeType 1.x with no namespace
  conflicts.  However, the source package names must be distinguished in
  Debian.  So, to truly conform with the library naming convention outlined
  in the Debian Policy, I've decided the following names for the FreeType
  packages in Debian 2.3:
  
    FreeType 2.0.x:
        Source package: freetype_2.0.x.orig.tar.gz     (current version)
       library package: libfreetype7_2.0.x-x      (libfreetype, soname 7)
         devel package: libfreetype7-dev_2.0.x-x  (libfreetype, soname 7)
  
    FreeType 1.x:
        Source package: freetype1_1.x.orig.tar.gz        (for FreeType 1)
       library package: libttf2_1.x-?                  (libttf, soname 2)
         devel package: libttf-dev_1.x-?               (libttf, soname 2)
  
  Simple, non?
  
  Enjoy!  :-)
