Description Adam Jackson 2012-08-28 17:25:23 UTC 
Description of problem:

PHP's binding to its embedded copy of gd (sigh) contains interfaces to both t1lib and freetype.  I'm not sure why it would need to do this since freetype can handle Type1 fonts just fine.
Comment 1 Remi Collet 2012-08-29 05:39:12 UTC 
All imageps* functions directly rely on t1lib.
* imagepsloadfont
* imagepsfreefont
* imagepsencodefont
* imagepsextendfont
* imagepsslantfont
* imagepstext
* imagepsbbox
Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2014-07-16 12:03:16 UTC 
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Comment 3 Remi Collet 2016-06-27 15:13:24 UTC 
Version 7 is now build in rawhide and doesn't use t1lib anymore.
