* Wed Jun 04 2025 Cor Blom <cornelis@solcon.nl>
- Update to 7.000:
This is a major update:
* New font family name: Gentium. This allows for 6.200 (Gentium-Plus)
and 7.000 to be installed at the same time. We don't package
the old version, but it can easily be downloaded.
* Decreased default line spacing
* Additional intermediate weights: Medium & SemiBold
* Extensive kerning for all languages and generally improved spacing
* Oldstyle figures
* Enhancements to Greek including small caps and support for rare
and uncommon combinations
* Improved autohinting for better screen appearance and consistency
* Many fixes, character additions, and feature improvements
- Drop 31-sil-gentium.conf: in light of the major changes, users
should see that the old version is not available, therefore we
will not use fontconfig to hide this
* Thu Feb 02 2023 Cor Blom <cornelis@solcon.nl>
- Update to 6.200:
* This release is focused on adding features and 240+ glyphs,
including support for over 180 additional characters mostly
from Unicode 14 and 15. It does not include significant changes
to line spacing, glyph widths, or kerning that might cause
document reflow or layout changes—except for minor improvements
to the size and weight of superscript, subscript, and modifier
letters
* Most important changes: support for subscript and superscript
numerals and automatic fractions
