Heads up everyone!

Looks like the naming of these build variants is changing upstream, so the relevant package names here will change accordingly as well.

• Iosevka (custom) will now have wide arrows and geometric symbols
• formerly "termlig" -> "term"
• formerly "term" -> "fixed"

I will be requesting deletion of the termlig package for the rename. I will be requesting deletion of the slab packages because no one uses them.

Please stay tuned for updated packages as I ensure a successful transition.

I've now included, disabled unless manually uncommented, a patch to get back the old, smoother, "toothless" capital G, as seen here (look for "LIGHT"): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/be5invis/Iosevka/47023ab4058987f58844f6308d8175e735106b8a/images/preview-all.png

If anyone else here prefers that toothless version, please express that at https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka/issues/442 so that it might return upstream as a glyph variant option.

@E I've changed things so that the file is no longer overwritten, so there shouldn't be any trouble with checksums anymore. Note that this build does not check for the user-defined toml file in the build directory, but in ~/.config/iosevka/

Let me know if this is good for you.

@E You can always check out the committed version of that file, or tell yay to check it out again.

I'll remove the integrity check if a second person requests it

@andykluger It's because I use yay, perhaps I'm the only yay user of this package. I think it would be better not to check since I doubt there are any security implications for that.

@E it sounds like you are first overwriting that file yourself. It will work if instead you keep your custom file in the mentioned folder, and run makepkg from the clean, checked-out state of this repo.

However, if everyone still wants me to stop checking the integrity of this repo's file, I will.

But after the hash check, it will overwrite the shipped copy with one from ~/.config/iosevka/ if it exists.

For me I can't install it without editing the PKGBUILD because it will complain that my private-build-plans.toml fails validation.

If anyone else hates the new capital G with the "tooth" at the lower right, I've reverted that change at https://github.com/AndydeCleyre/Iosevka/tree/feature/toothless-G . I hope the old G comes back as a selectable glyph variant upstream, but no news on that yet.

If there's any interest here in my including this change as a patch, either enabled or disabled (commented out in the PKGBUILD) by default, let me know.

Well it does ship with that file, so the hash is known anyway. But after the hash check, it will overwrite the shipped copy with one from ~/.config/iosevka/ if it exists.

Why check the hash of the private-build-plans.toml? I thought the point of this package was to allow installers to set their own options with their own private-build-plans.toml.
