rrdtool (1.3.1-4) unstable; urgency=high Starting with version 1.3, RRDtool uses libpango for handling text in graphs. When specifying fonts (e.g. using the --font option of rrdgraph(1)) a Pango font description (e.g. "Times 20") has to be used instead of specifying truetype font files as in version 1.2. See the rrdgraph(1) manpage for details. Also, Pango expects strings to be encoded in UTF-8. RRDtool tries to take care of that but for it to work correctly the string's encoding has to match the locale settings or has to be UTF-8 encoded already. E.g. this might be a problem if rrdtool is called from a script whose encoding does not match the local settings. -- Sebastian Harl Fri, 26 Sep 2008 00:07:32 +0200
