-Subject: [truetype] Allow linear scaling for unhinted rendering (#50470).
-
-* src/truetype/ttdriver.c (tt_size_request): Revert change from
-2011-07-16; the intended metrics fix seems now to be implemented in
-a different way, making the patch unnecessary.  Note that this
-change was usually patched out by all major GNU/Linux distributions
-due to heavy side effects.
-
-* src/truetype/ttgload.c (compute_glyph_metrics, TT_Load_Glyph):
-Refer to the metrics of the `TT_Size' object.
