Package: python3-fonttools
Version: 4.61.1-4
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?

Current implementation of python3-fonttools causes FTBFS about
font-morisawa-bizud-gothic [1] and font-morisawa-bizud-mincho [2].

That problem was already fixed in upstream [3], so please update
python3-fonttools 4.62.0 or later, OR apply patch from upstream.

[1] fonts-morisawa-bizud-gothic: FTBFS: TypeError: '<' not supported
between instances of 'dict' and 'dict'
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1126200

[2] fonts-morisawa-bizud-mincho: FTBFS: TypeError: '<' not supported
between instances of 'dict' and 'dict'
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1126201

[3] Inserting new cmap tables will fail on trying to sort them into
canonical order https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/issues/4035

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
  ineffective)?

Test build fonts-morisawa-bizud with applying patch [3] without
duplicate check in compile method in
Lib/fontTools/ttLib/tables/_c_m_a_p.py. It will fix FTBFS.
(I've found that build.py
which is bundled for fonts-morisawa-bizud package has another issue,
but this is out-of-scope in this bug report)

* What was the outcome of this action?

As python-fonttools will be updated and FTBFS bugs [1][2] were also
fixed with additional patch for them.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

N/A
