problem with today's beta

problem with today's beta

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Hi Hans,

there's a problem with today's beta: at every run I get this error:

Attempt to allocate memory failed.
fontnames | identifying tree font files with suffix otfMTXrun | fatal  
error, no return code, message: luatex: execution interrupted

even when I call something like this:

mtxrun --script fonts --list --pattern="times*"
MTXrun | fontnames: identifying tree font files with suffix otf
Attempt to allocate memory failed.
zsh: abort      mtxrun --script fonts --list --pattern="times*"

This is on OS X intel, if this matters.

All best

Thomas

Oops, you're right, I just tested with Ubuntu and see that it must be  
something in my private texmf tree. I'll report back as soon as I find  
out what it is!

OK, I found the culprit: an older version of LinuxLibertine in my  
$HOMEtexmf; when I replaced it with the most recent version, the error  
went away. Looks like the fontload mechanism in the latest beta is  
pickier than in the version before that...

Thanks luigi, and sorry for the noise

Just one addition: I see there were messages about this font in 2008  
on the list, and it was troublesome because of the stupid names that  
its creators have given it. For the time being, I haven't found any  
way of loading it in mkiv. I've tried

according to the fonts script, it's

linlibertineo              LinLibertineO                   
LinLibertine_Re-4.4.1.otf

I tried

   \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [name:linlibertineo]

and

   \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [file:LinLibertine_Re-4.4.1]

and even

   \definefontsynonym [Serif]            
[file:"LinLibertine_Re-4.4.1.otf"]

but no dice. Unless someone can come up with another idea, I will  
simply conclude that atm, this font cannot be used with mkiv.

Hi Thomas,

> LinLibertine_Re-4.4.1.otf
I've been struggling a bit with linlibertine as well, I've found that there
seems to be an issue with some characters in the font filenames (probably the
_ or ., I haven't figured out which ones exactly). I've got the files named
like this:

  $ ls .fonts/Linux-Libertine-4.4.1/
  linlib-bolditalic.otf  linlib-bold.otf  linlib-caps.otf  linlib-italic.otf
  linlib-roman.otf

with OSFONTDIR=$HOME/.fonts and the following typescripts:

  % Script taken from the "typescripts" pacakage at http://modules.contextgarden.net/typescripts
  \starttypescript [serif] [linuxlibertine]
      \definefontsynonym [LinuxLibertine-Regular]    [name:Linux Libertine O]             [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [LinuxLibertine-Italic]     [name:Linux Libertine O Italic]      [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [LinuxLibertine-Bold]       [name:Linux Libertine O Bold]        [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [LinuxLibertine-BoldItalic] [name:Linux Libertine O Bold Italic] [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [LinuxLibertine-Caps]       [name:Linux Libertine O Capitals]    [features=default]
  \stoptypescript        

  % Script taken from the "typescripts" pacakage at
  \starttypescript [serif] [linuxlibertine]
      \setups[font:fallback:serif]
      \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [LinuxLibertine-Regular]    [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]     [LinuxLibertine-Italic]     [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [SerifBold]       [LinuxLibertine-Bold]       [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [LinuxLibertine-BoldItalic] [features=default]
      \definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]       [LinuxLibertine-Caps]       [features=default]
  \stoptypescript 
                              
  \usetypescript[linuxlibertine] 

This works with MkIV and the beta from a few weeks back, haven't tried todays.

Hi Matthijs,

thanks for this. I guess I could rename the font. I'm trying to  
include it in my Greek typescript and was hoping I could simply tell  
users "take the otf-files and copy them into your fonts/opentype  
directory." Maybe I'll just rename the files and include the font with  
the module, I think their license (OFL) allows that.

Best

Thomas

Perhaps you could try to found out why it does not work with the original
naming and get that bug fixed in luatex/context/wherever it is?

Alternatively, you could contact the authors of the linlibertine font and
suggest changing the filenames of the fonts? It would also be in their
interest to have their fonts work out-of-the-box.

ConTeXt has a problem with the dots in the filename, underscores are
no problem and you let it remain, to use the fonts on my system I  
removed
only the version number but this is not a real solution and this bug was
mentioned AFAIK long ago.

You should make a entry in the bug tracker and hope Hans will solve it.
