[ Reason ] This upload reverts a patch in FreeType 2.12+dfsg-5+deb12u1 that intended to disable the experimental COLRv1 API but instead caused Chromium to segfault on start-up. A fix to the patch has been identified and verified but is out of scope due to the timing of Debian 12.2. [ Impact ] Chromium will segfault on start-up, rendering the browser unusable. [ Risks ] None. This version disables the problematic patch, so Chromium starts as expected. [ Checklist ] [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] One-line patch to disable the problematic patch at build time.
