freetype 2.8.1-2ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

freetype (2.8.1-2ubuntu1) bionic; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - Build with -Werror=maybe-uninitialized when building with -O3.
    - debian/patches-freetype/CVE-2018-6942.patch: re sets args array to zero
      if not coords in src/truetype/ttinterp.c.
  * Dropped changes, included in Debian:
    - Error out on the use of the freetype-config --libtool option.
    - Don't add multiarch libdirs for freetype-config --libs.
    - Make libfreetype6-dev M-A: same.
    - debian/rules: post-process ftconfig.h to avoid arch-dependent
      definitions for multiarch, and move it back to /usr/include so that
      all headers are again in the same path relative to each other.

freetype (2.8.1-2) unstable; urgency=high

  * debian/rules: fix SIZEOF_LONG mangling to avoid over-broad matching.
    Closes: #887087.

  * Acknowledge NMUs; thanks to Laurent for the uploads.

    - Mark libfreetype6-dev Multi-Arch: same (Closes: #642354).
    - Remove the deprecated Priority: extra field from libfreetype6-udeb.
  * debian/patches/patches-*: Refresh existing patches.
  * debian/patches/patches-freetype/freetype-config-multi-arch.patch:
    - Remove the arch-dependent output of `freetype-config --libs`.
      Closes: #871470, #870618.
    - Exit with an error if freetype-config is called with --libtool.
  * debian/rules:
    - Include /usr/share/dpkg/architecture.mk.
    - Dynamically generate the shlibs dependency version (Closes: #883698).
    - Replace the autoconf definition of SIZEOF_LONG with the compile-time
      constant __SIZEOF_LONG__ to make libfreetype6-dev multi-arch compatible.
  * Thanks to Hugh McMaster <email address hidden> for preparing these
    changes.
