Bug Description

Binary package hint: ttf-junicode

Version 0.6.15+20080123-1, the latest in jaunty, is missing Junicode-Italic.ttf, which has the effect of italics rendering as bold-italics. The package should be upgraded to 0.6.15+20090224-1, which is in Debian.

In the meantime, Italic isn't included in the given snapshot because its xgridfit instructions have an error in them somewhere, which is why they're commented out. (I'm at a loss to explain why a broken snapshot was released.) The newer version requires xgridfit 1.11 or possibly higher (for the -V option with no arguments to mean "validate" rather than "version"), which isn't noted in the newer version's Build-Depends. (Filed Debian bug 532915 on that.) However, simply downloading and installing the newer .deb package works properly; XeTeX selects the regular, italic, bold, and bold-italic versions as requested. Unless someone's going to backport both the new version of Junicode and the new version of xgridfit, that looks like the best plan.
