lmodern (2.004.1-3.1ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* Use maintscript support in dh_installdeb rather than writing out
dpkg-maintscript-helper commands by hand. We now simply Pre-Depend on a
new enough version of dpkg rather than using 'dpkg-maintscript-helper
supports' guards, leading to more predictable behaviour on upgrades.

- lmodern: scalable PostScript and OpenType fonts based on Computer Modern
The Latin Modern fonts, also known as "lm fonts", are a set of
scalable fonts in PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. They are
based on the PostScript Type 1 version of the Computer Modern fonts
and contain many additional characters (mostly accented ones).
.
The Latin Modern fonts were generated using MetaType1, a program
based on MetaPost for generating PostScript Type 1 fonts
(ftp://bop.eps.gda. pl/pub/ metatype1/). Their size is reasonable and
they are usually considered to be of good quality (compared to
cm-super, for instance; however, cm-super contains font families
that have no equivalent in this package; additionally, there are
character sets that are supported by cm-super and not by the Latin
Modern fonts).
.
The fonts are setup for use with the TeX typesetting system. They
are also registered with defoma, which makes them available to other
applications such as Ghostscript and Fontconfig. Finally, they are
made available to the core X11 fonts system, which makes it possible
to use them in any X application.
