From ad8f36c2d1899aaec3688dc6f9ee28b3e22774ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paride Legovini Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 11:03:36 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Re-enable autohinting This will hopefully help with the ocaml transition, but more in general we'd like to see if this improves britney's heuristics. The commit that implemented the auto-hint skip (3e28539c17e020ecf) mentions a recursion problem, but what exactly caused that and what the consequences were is not clear. Re-enabling autohinting will allow us to reassess that. Revert "Temporarily disable autohinter due to a recursion problem" This reverts commit 3e28539c17e020ecf6233f41fba2a1fdf3816b59. --- britney.py | 3 --- 1 file changed, 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/britney.py b/britney.py index 8d8f427..9c32d44 100755 --- a/britney.py +++ b/britney.py @@ -1470,9 +1470,6 @@ class Britney(object): """ self.logger.info("> Processing hints from the auto hinter") - self.logger.info(">> Skipping auto hinting due to recursion problem") - return [] - sources_t = self.suite_info.target_suite.sources excuses = self.excuses
