Scheduled weekly dependency update for week 44

[pyup-bot]

Update requests from 2.27.1 to 2.32.3.

Changelog

2.32.3

-------------------

**Bugfixes**
- Fixed bug breaking the ability to specify custom SSLContexts in sub-classes of
HTTPAdapter. (6716)
- Fixed issue where Requests started failing to run on Python versions compiled
without the `ssl` module. (6724)

2.32.2

-------------------

**Deprecations**
- To provide a more stable migration for custom HTTPAdapters impacted
by the CVE changes in 2.32.0, we've renamed `_get_connection` to
a new public API, `get_connection_with_tls_context`. Existing custom
HTTPAdapters will need to migrate their code to use this new API.
`get_connection` is considered deprecated in all versions of Requests>=2.32.0.

A minimal (2-line) example has been provided in the linked PR to ease
migration, but we strongly urge users to evaluate if their custom adapter
is subject to the same issue described in CVE-2024-35195. (6710)

2.32.1

-------------------

**Bugfixes**
- Add missing test certs to the sdist distributed on PyPI.

2.32.0

-------------------

**Security**
- Fixed an issue where setting `verify=False` on the first request from a
Session will cause subsequent requests to the _same origin_ to also ignore
cert verification, regardless of the value of `verify`.
(https://github.com/psf/requests/security/advisories/GHSA-9wx4-h78v-vm56)

**Improvements**
- `verify=True` now reuses a global SSLContext which should improve
request time variance between first and subsequent requests. It should
also minimize certificate load time on Windows systems when using a Python
version built with OpenSSL 3.x. (6667)
- Requests now supports optional use of character detection
(`chardet` or `charset_normalizer`) when repackaged or vendored.
This enables `pip` and other projects to minimize their vendoring
surface area. The `Response.text()` and `apparent_encoding` APIs
will default to `utf-8` if neither library is present. (6702)

**Bugfixes**
- Fixed bug in length detection where emoji length was incorrectly
calculated in the request content-length. (6589)
- Fixed deserialization bug in JSONDecodeError. (6629)
- Fixed bug where an extra leading `/` (path separator) could lead
urllib3 to unnecessarily reparse the request URI. (6644)

**Deprecations**

- Requests has officially added support for CPython 3.12 (6503)
- Requests has officially added support for PyPy 3.9 and 3.10 (6641)
- Requests has officially dropped support for CPython 3.7 (6642)
- Requests has officially dropped support for PyPy 3.7 and 3.8 (6641)

**Documentation**
- Various typo fixes and doc improvements.

**Packaging**
- Requests has started adopting some modern packaging practices.
The source files for the projects (formerly `requests`) is now located
in `src/requests` in the Requests sdist. (6506)
- Starting in Requests 2.33.0, Requests will migrate to a PEP 517 build system
using `hatchling`. This should not impact the average user, but extremely old
versions of packaging utilities may have issues with the new packaging format.

2.31.0

-------------------

**Security**
- Versions of Requests between v2.3.0 and v2.30.0 are vulnerable to potential
forwarding of `Proxy-Authorization` headers to destination servers when
following HTTPS redirects.

When proxies are defined with user info (`https://user:passproxy:8080`), Requests
will construct a `Proxy-Authorization` header that is attached to the request to
authenticate with the proxy.

In cases where Requests receives a redirect response, it previously reattached
the `Proxy-Authorization` header incorrectly, resulting in the value being
sent through the tunneled connection to the destination server. Users who rely on
defining their proxy credentials in the URL are *strongly* encouraged to upgrade
to Requests 2.31.0+ to prevent unintentional leakage and rotate their proxy
credentials once the change has been fully deployed.

Users who do not use a proxy or do not supply their proxy credentials through
the user information portion of their proxy URL are not subject to this
vulnerability.

Full details can be read in our [Github Security Advisory](https://github.com/psf/requests/security/advisories/GHSA-j8r2-6x86-q33q)
and [CVE-2023-32681](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-32681).

2.30.0

-------------------

**Dependencies**
- ⚠️ Added support for urllib3 2.0. ⚠️

This may contain minor breaking changes so we advise careful testing and
reviewing https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/v2-migration-guide.html
prior to upgrading.

Users who wish to stay on urllib3 1.x can pin to `urllib3<2`.

2.29.0

-------------------

**Improvements**

- Requests now defers chunked requests to the urllib3 implementation to improve
standardization. (6226)
- Requests relaxes header component requirements to support bytes/str subclasses. (6356)

2.28.2

-------------------

**Dependencies**

- Requests now supports charset\_normalizer 3.x. (6261)

**Bugfixes**

- Updated MissingSchema exception to suggest https scheme rather than http. (6188)

2.28.1

-------------------

**Improvements**

- Speed optimization in `iter_content` with transition to `yield from`. (6170)

**Dependencies**

- Added support for chardet 5.0.0 (6179)
- Added support for charset-normalizer 2.1.0 (6169)

2.28.0

-------------------

**Deprecations**

- ⚠️ Requests has officially dropped support for Python 2.7. ⚠️ (6091)
- Requests has officially dropped support for Python 3.6 (including pypy3.6). (6091)

**Improvements**

- Wrap JSON parsing issues in Request's JSONDecodeError for payloads without
an encoding to make `json()` API consistent. (6097)
- Parse header components consistently, raising an InvalidHeader error in
all invalid cases. (6154)
- Added provisional 3.11 support with current beta build. (6155)
- Requests got a makeover and we decided to paint it black. (6095)

**Bugfixes**

- Fixed bug where setting `CURL_CA_BUNDLE` to an empty string would disable
cert verification. All Requests 2.x versions before 2.28.0 are affected. (6074)
- Fixed urllib3 exception leak, wrapping `urllib3.exceptions.SSLError` with
`requests.exceptions.SSLError` for `content` and `iter_content`. (6057)
- Fixed issue where invalid Windows registry entries caused proxy resolution
to raise an exception rather than ignoring the entry. (6149)
- Fixed issue where entire payload could be included in the error message for
JSONDecodeError. (6036)

Update pymysql from 1.0.2 to 1.1.1.

Changelog

1.1.1

Release date: 2024-05-21

> [!WARNING]
> This release fixes a vulnerability (CVE-2024-36039).
> All users are recommended to update to this version.
>
> If you can not update soon, check the input value from
> untrusted source has an expected type. Only dict input
> from untrusted source can be an attack vector.

* Prohibit dict parameter for `Cursor.execute()`. It didn't produce valid SQL
and might cause SQL injection. (CVE-2024-36039)
* Added ssl_key_password param. 1145

1.1.0

https://codeql.github.com/codeql-query-help/python/py-xxe/
- [varLib.iup] Added workaround for a Cython bug in ``iup_delta_optimize`` that was
leading to IUP tolerance being incorrectly initialised, resulting in sub-optimal deltas
(60126435d, cython/cython5732).

- [varLib] Use sentinel value 0xFFFF to mark a glyph advance in hmtx/vmtx as non
participating, allowing sparse masters to contain glyphs for variation purposes other
than {H,V}VAR (3235).

converting VOLT OpenType Layout sources to FEA format (3164).

4.40.0

----------------------------

- Published native binary wheels to PyPI for all the python minor versions and platform
and architectures currently supported that would benefit from this. They will include
precompiled Cython-accelerated modules (e.g. cu2qu) without requiring to compile them
from source. The pure-python wheel and source distribution will continue to be
published as always (pip will automatically chose them when no binary wheel is
available for the given platform, e.g. pypy). Use ``pip install --no-binary=fonttools fonttools``

Added ``quantization`` option (3126).
- Added CI workflow config file for building native binary wheels (3121).

outlines but glyphDataFormat was not explicitly set to 1 (3113, 3119).
- [subset] Prune emptied GDEF.MarkGlyphSetsDef and remap indices; ensure GDEF is
subsetted before GSUB and GPOS (3114, 3118).

- [varLib/merger] Fixed merging of SinglePos with pos=0 (3111, 3112).
- [feaLib] Demote "Feature has not been defined" error to a warning when building aalt
and referenced feature is empty (3110).

was introduced in v4.39 (3059).
- [ttFont] Fixed AttributeError on python <= 3.10 when opening a TTFont from a tempfile
SpooledTemporaryFile, seekable method only added on python 3.11 (3052).

4.39.2

----------------------------

- [varLib] Fixed regression introduced in 4.39.1 whereby an incomplete 'STAT' table
would be built even though a DesignSpace v5 did contain 'STAT' definitions (3045, 3046).

4.39.1

----------------------------

- [avar2] Added experimental support for reading/writing avar version 2 as specified in
this draft proposal: https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec/blob/main/avar2.md

because of a macOS bug (3034).
- [COLRv1] Added method to automatically compute ClipBoxes (3027).

- [varLib] When building VF, do not overwrite a pre-existing ``STAT`` table that was built
with feaLib from FEA feature file. Also, added support for building multiple VFs
defined in Designspace v5 from ``fonttools varLib`` script (3024).
- [mtiLib] Only add ``Debg`` table with lookup names when ``FONTTOOLS_LOOKUP_DEBUGGING``
env variable is set (3023).

4.39.0

----------------------------

- [mtiLib] Optionally add `Debg` debug info for MTI feature builds (3018).
- [ttx] Support reading input file from standard input using special `-` character,
similar to existing `-o -` option to write output to standard output (3020).
- [cython] Prevent ``cython.compiled`` raise AttributeError if cython not installed
properly (3017).
- [OS/2] Guard against ZeroDivisionError when calculating xAvgCharWidth in the unlikely
scenario no glyph has non-zero advance (3015).
- [subset] Recompute xAvgCharWidth independently of --no-prune-unicode-ranges,
previously the two options were involuntarily bundled together (3012).
- [fontBuilder] Add ``debug`` parameter to addOpenTypeFeatures method to add source
debugging information to the font in the ``Debg`` private table (3008).
- [name] Make NameRecord `__lt__` comparison not fail on Unicode encoding errors (3006).
- [featureVars] Fixed bug in ``overlayBox`` (3003, 3005).
- [glyf] Added experimental support for cubic bezier curves in TrueType glyf table, as
outlined in glyf v1 proposal (2988):
https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec/blob/main/glyf1-cubicOutlines.md
- Added new qu2cu module and related qu2cuPen, the reverse of cu2qu for converting
TrueType quadratic splines to cubic bezier curves (2993).
- [glyf] Added experimental support for reading and writing Variable Composites/Components
as defined in glyf v1 spec proposal (2958):
https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec/blob/main/glyf1-varComposites.md.
- [pens]: Added `addVarComponent` method to pen protocols' base classes, which pens can implement
to handle varcomponents (by default they get decomposed) (2958).
- [misc.transform] Added DecomposedTransform class which implements an affine transformation
with separate translate, rotation, scale, skew, and transformation-center components (2598)
- [sbix] Ensure Glyph.referenceGlyphName is set; fixes error after dumping and
re-compiling sbix table with 'dupe' glyphs (2984).
- [feaLib] Be cleverer when merging chained single substitutions into same lookup
when they are specified using the inline notation (2150, 2974).
- [instancer] Clamp user-inputted axis ranges to those of fvar (2959).
- [otBase/subset] Define ``__getstate__`` for BaseTable so that a copied/pickled 'lazy'
object gets its own OTTableReader to read from; incidentally fixes a bug while
subsetting COLRv1 table containing ClipBoxes on python 3.11 (2965, 2968).
- [sbix] Handle glyphs with "dupe" graphic type on compile correctly (2963).
- [glyf] ``endPointsOfContours`` field should be unsigned! Kudos to behdad for
spotting one of the oldest bugs in FT. Probably nobody has ever dared to make
glyphs with more than 32767 points... (2957).
- [feaLib] Fixed handling of ``ignore`` statements with unmarked glyphs to match
makeotf behavior, which assumes the first glyph is marked (2950).
- Reformatted code with ``black`` and enforce new code style via CI check (2925).
- [feaLib] Sort name table entries following OT spec prescribed order in the builder (2927).
- [cu2quPen] Add Cu2QuMultiPen that converts multiple outlines at a time in
interpolation compatible way; its methods take a list of tuples arguments
that would normally be passed to individual segment pens, and at the end it
dispatches the converted outlines to each pen (2912).
- [reverseContourPen/ttGlyphPen] Add outputImpliedClosingLine option (2913, 2914,
2921, 2922, 2995).
- [gvar] Avoid expanding all glyphs unnecessarily upon compile (2918).
- [scaleUpem] Fixed bug whereby CFF2 vsindex was scaled; it should not (2893, 2894).
- [designspaceLib] Add DS.getAxisByTag and refactor getAxis (2891).
- [unicodedata] map Zmth<->math in ot_tag_{to,from}_script (1737, 2889).
- [woff2] Support encoding/decoding OVERLAP_SIMPLE glyf flags (2576, 2884).
- [instancer] Update OS/2 class and post.italicAngle when default moved (L4)
- Dropped support for Python 3.7 which reached EOL, fontTools requires 3.8+.
- [instancer] Fixed instantiateFeatureVariations logic when a rule range becomes
default-applicable (2737, 2880).
- [ttLib] Add main to ttFont and ttCollection that just decompile and re-compile the
input font (2869).
- [featureVars] Insert 'rvrn' lookup at the beginning of LookupList, to work around bug
in Apple implementation of 'rvrn' feature which the spec says it should be processed
early whereas on macOS 10.15 it follows lookup order (2140, 2867).
- [instancer/mutator] Remove 'DSIG' table if present.
- [svgPathPen] Don't close path in endPath(), assume open unless closePath() (2089, 2865).

4.38.0

----------------------------

- [varLib.instancer] Added support for L4 instancing, i.e. moving the default value of
an axis while keeping it variable. Thanks Behdad! (2728, 2861).
It's now also possible to restrict an axis min/max values beyond the current default
value, e.g. a font wght has min=100, def=400, max=900 and you want a partial VF that
only varies between 500 and 700, you can now do that.
You can either specify two min/max values (wght=500:700), and the new default will be
set to either the minimum or maximum, depending on which one is closer to the current
default (e.g. 500 in this case). Or you can specify three values (e.g. wght=500:600:700)
to specify the new default value explicitly.
- [otlLib/featureVars] Set a few Count values so one doesn't need to compile the font
to update them (2860).
- [varLib.models] Make extrapolation work for 2-master models as well where one master
is at the default location (2843, 2846).
Add optional extrapolate=False to normalizeLocation() (2847, 2849).
- [varLib.cff] Fixed sub-optimal packing of CFF2 deltas by no longer rounding them to
integer (2838).
- [scaleUpem] Calculate numShorts in VarData after scale; handle CFF hintmasks (2840).

4.37.4

----------------------------

- [subset] Keep nameIDs used by CPAL palette entry labels (2837).
- [varLib] Avoid negative hmtx values when creating font from variable CFF2 font (2827).
- [instancer] Don't prune stat.ElidedFallbackNameID (2828).
- [unicodedata] Update Scripts/Blocks to Unicode 15.0 (2833).

4.37.3

----------------------------

- Fix arguments in calls to (glyf) glyph.draw() and drawPoints(), whereby offset wasn't
correctly passed down; this fix also exposed a second bug, where lsb and tsb were not
set (2824, 2825, adobe-type-tools/afdko1560).

4.37.2

----------------------------

- [subset] Keep CPAL table and don't attempt to prune unused color indices if OT-SVG
table is present even if COLR table was subsetted away; OT-SVG may be referencing the
CPAL table; for now we assume that's the case (2814, 2815).
- [varLib.instancer] Downgrade GPOS/GSUB version if there are no more FeatureVariations
after instancing (2812).
- [subset] Added ``--no-lazy`` to optionally load fonts eagerly (mostly to ease
debugging of table lazy loading, no practical effects) (2807).
- [varLib] Avoid building empty COLR.DeltaSetIndexMap with only identity mappings (2803).
- [feaLib] Allow multiple value record types (by promoting to the most general format)
within the same PairPos subtable; e.g. this allows variable and non variable kerning
rules to share the same subtable. This also fixes a bug whereby some kerning pairs
would become unreachable while shapiong because of premature subtable splitting (2772, 2776).
- [feaLib] Speed up ``VarScalar`` by caching models for recurring master locations (2798).
- [feaLib] Optionally cythonize ``feaLib.lexer``, speeds up parsing FEA a bit (2799).
- [designspaceLib] Avoid crash when handling unbounded rule conditions (2797).
- [post] Don't crash if ``post`` legacy format 1 is malformed/improperly used (2786)
- [gvar] Don't be "lazy" (load all glyph variations up front) when TTFont.lazy=False (2771).
- [TTFont] Added ``normalizeLocation`` method to normalize a location dict from the
font's defined axes space (also known as "user space") into the normalized (-1..+1)
space. It applies ``avar`` mapping if the font contains an ``avar`` table (2789).
- [TTVarGlyphSet] Support drawing glyph instances from CFF2 variable glyph set (2784).
- [fontBuilder] Do not error when building cmap if there are zero code points (2785).
- [varLib.plot] Added ability to plot a variation model and set of accompaning master
values corresponding to the model's master locations into a pyplot figure (2767).
- [Snippets] Added ``statShape.py`` script to draw statistical shape of a glyph as an
ellips (requires pycairo) (baecd88).
- [TTVarGlyphSet] implement drawPoints natively, avoiding going through
SegmentToPointPen (2778).
- [TTVarGlyphSet] Fixed bug whereby drawing a composite glyph multiple times, its
components would shif; needed an extra copy (2774).

4.37.1

----------------------------

- [subset] Fixed regression introduced with v4.37.0 while subsetting the VarStore of
``HVAR`` and ``VVAR`` tables, whereby an ``AttributeError: subset_varidxes`` was
thrown because an apparently unused import statement (with the side-effect of
dynamically binding that ``subset_varidxes`` method to the VarStore class) had been
accidentally deleted in an unrelated PR (2679, 2773).
- [pens] Added ``cairoPen`` (2678).
- [gvar] Read ``gvar`` more lazily by not parsing all of the ``glyf`` table (2771).
- [ttGlyphSet] Make ``drawPoints(pointPen)`` method work for CFF fonts as well via
adapter pen (2770).

4.37.0

----------------------------

- [varLib.models] Reverted PR 2717 which added support for "narrow tents" in v4.36.0,
as it introduced a regression (2764, 2765). It will be restored in upcoming release
once we found a solution to the bug.
- [cff.specializer] Fixed issue in charstring generalizer with the ``blend`` operator
(2750, 1975).
- [varLib.models] Added support for extrapolation (2757).
- [ttGlyphSet] Ensure the newly added ``_TTVarGlyphSet`` inherits from ``_TTGlyphSet``
to keep backward compatibility with existing API (2762).
- [kern] Allow compiling legacy kern tables with more than 64k entries (d21cfdede).
- [visitor] Added new visitor API to traverse tree of objects and dispatch based
on the attribute type: cf. ``fontTools.misc.visitor`` and ``fontTools.ttLib.ttVisitor``. Added ``fontTools.ttLib.scaleUpem`` module that uses the latter to
change a font's units-per-em and scale all the related fields accordingly (2718,
2755).

4.36.0

----------------------------

- [varLib.models] Use a simpler model that generates narrower "tents" (regions, master
supports) whenever possible: specifically when any two axes that actively "cooperate"
(have masters at non-zero positions for both axes) have a complete set of intermediates.
The simpler algorithm produces fewer overlapping regions and behaves better with
respect to rounding at the peak positions than the generic solver, always matching
intermediate masters exactly, instead of maximally 0.5 units off. This may be useful
when 100% metrics compatibility is desired (2218, 2717).
- [feaLib] Remove warning when about ``GDEF`` not being built when explicitly not
requested; don't build one unconditonally even when not requested (2744, also works
around 2747).
- [ttFont] ``TTFont.getGlyphSet`` method now supports selecting a location that
represents an instance of a variable font (supports both user-scale and normalized
axes coordinates via the ``normalized=False`` parameter). Currently this only works
for TrueType-flavored variable fonts (2738).

4.35.0

----------------------------

- [otData/otConverters] Added support for 'biased' PaintSweepGradient start/end angles
to match latest COLRv1 spec (2743).
- [varLib.instancer] Fixed bug in ``_instantiateFeatureVariations`` when at the same
time pinning one axis and restricting the range of a subsequent axis; the wrong axis
tag was being used in the latter step (as the records' axisIdx was updated in the
preceding step but looked up using the old axes order in the following step) (2733,
2734).
- [mtiLib] Pad script tags with space when less than 4 char long (1727).
- [merge] Use ``'.'`` instead of ``''`` in duplicate glyph names (2742).
- [gvar] Added support for lazily loading glyph variations (2741).
- [varLib] In ``build_many``, we forgot to pass on ``colr_layer_reuse`` parameter to
the ``build`` method (2730).
- [svgPathPen] Add a main that prints SVG for input text (6df779fd).
- [cffLib.width] Fixed off-by-one in optimized values; previous code didn't match the
code block above it (2963fa50).
- [varLib.interpolatable] Support reading .designspace and .glyphs files (via optional
``glyphsLib``).
- Compile some modules with Cython when available and building/installing fonttools
from source: ``varLib.iup`` (35% faster), ``pens.momentsPen`` (makes
``varLib.interpolatable`` 3x faster).
- [feaLib] Allow features to be built for VF without also building a GDEF table (e.g.
only build GSUB); warn when GDEF would be needed but isn't requested (2705, 2694).
- [otBase] Fixed ``AttributeError`` when uharfbuzz < 0.23.0 and 'repack' method is
missing (32aa8eaf). Use new ``uharfbuzz.repack_with_tag`` when available (since
uharfbuzz>=0.30.0), enables table-specific optimizations to be performed during
repacking (2724).
- [statisticsPen] By default report all glyphs (4139d891). Avoid division-by-zero
(52b28f90).
- [feaLib] Added missing required argument to FeatureLibError exception (2693)
- [varLib.merge] Fixed error during error reporting (2689). Fixed undefined
``NotANone`` variable (2714).

4.34.4

----------------------------

- Fixed typo in varLib/merger.py that causes NameError merging COLR glyphs
containing more than 255 layers (2685).

4.34.3

----------------------------

- [designspaceLib] Don't make up bad PS names when no STAT data (2684)

4.34.2

----------------------------

- [varStore/subset] fixed KeyError exception to do with NO_VARIATION_INDEX while
subsetting varidxes in GPOS/GDEF (a08140d).

4.34.1

----------------------------

- [instancer] When optimizing HVAR/VVAR VarStore, use_NO_VARIATION_INDEX=False to avoid
including NO_VARIATION_INDEX in AdvWidthMap, RsbMap, LsbMap mappings, which would
push the VarIdx width to maximum (4bytes), which is not desirable. This also fixes
a hard crash when attempting to subset a varfont after it had been partially instanced
with use_NO_VARIATION_INDEX=True.

4.34.0

----------------------------

- [instancer] Set RIBBI bits in head and OS/2 table when cutting instances and the
subfamily nameID=2 contains strings like 'Italic' or 'Bold' (2673).
- [otTraverse] Addded module containing methods for traversing trees of otData tables
(2660).
- [otTables] Made DeltaSetIndexMap TTX dump less verbose by omitting no-op entries
(2660).
- [colorLib.builder] Added option to disable PaintColrLayers's reuse of layers from
LayerList (2660).
- [varLib] Added support for merging multiple master COLRv1 tables into a variable
COLR table (2660, 2328). Base color glyphs of same name in different masters must have
identical paint graph structure (incl. number of layers, palette indices, number
of color line stops, corresponding paint formats at each level of the graph),
but can differ in the variable fields (e.g. PaintSolid.Alpha). PaintVar* tables
are produced when this happens and a VarStore/DeltaSetIndexMap is added to the
variable COLR table. It is possible for non-default masters to be 'sparse', i.e.
omit some of the color glyphs present in the default master.
- [feaLib] Let the Parser set nameIDs 1 through 6 that were previously reserved (2675).
- [varLib.varStore] Support NO_VARIATION_INDEX in optimizer and instancer.
- [feaLib] Show all missing glyphs at once at end of parsing (2665).
- [varLib.iup] Rewrite force-set conditions and limit DP loopback length (2651).
For Noto Sans, IUP time drops from 23s down to 9s, with only a slight size increase
in the final font. This basically turns the algorithm from O(n^3) into O(n).
- [featureVars] Report about missing glyphs in substitution rules (2654).
- [mutator/instancer] Added CLI flag to --no-recalc-timestamp (2649).
- [SVG] Allow individual SVG documents in SVG OT table to be compressed on uncompressed,
and remember that when roundtripping to/from ttx. The SVG.docList is now a list
of SVGDocument namedtuple-like dataclass containing an extra ``compressed`` field,
and no longer a bare 3-tuple (2645).
- [designspaceLib] Check for descriptor types with hasattr() to allow custom classes
that don't inherit the default descriptors (2634).
- [subset] Enable sharing across subtables of extension lookups for harfbuzz packing
(2626). Updated how table packing falls back to fontTools from harfbuzz (2668).
- [subset] Updated default feature tags following current Harfbuzz (2637).
- [svgLib] Fixed regex for real number to support e.g. 1e-4 in addition to 1.0e-4.
Support parsing negative rx, ry on arc commands (2596, 2611).
- [subset] Fixed subsetting SinglePosFormat2 when ValueFormat=0 (2603).

4.33.3

----------------------------

- [designspaceLib] Fixed typo in ``deepcopyExceptFonts`` method, preventing font
references to be transferred (2600). Fixed another typo in the name of ``Range``
dataclass's ``__post_init__`` magic method (2597).

4.33.2

----------------------------

- [otBase] Make logging less verbose when harfbuzz fails to serialize. Do not exit
at the first failure but continue attempting to fix offset overflow error using
the pure-python serializer even when the ``USE_HARFBUZZ_REPACKER`` option was
explicitly set to ``True``. This is normal with fonts with relatively large
tables, at least until hb.repack implements proper table splitting.

4.33.1

----------------------------

- [otlLib] Put back the ``FONTTOOLS_GPOS_COMPACT_MODE`` environment variable to fix
regression in ufo2ft (and thus fontmake) introduced with v4.33.0 (2592, 2593).
This is deprecated and will be removed one ufo2ft gets updated to use the new
config setup.

4.33.0

----------------------------

- [OS/2 / merge] Automatically recalculate ``OS/2.xAvgCharWidth`` after merging
fonts with ``fontTools.merge`` (2591, 2538).
- [misc/config] Added ``fontTools.misc.configTools`` module, a generic configuration
system (2416, 2439).
Added ``fontTools.config`` module, a fontTools-specific configuration
system using ``configTools`` above.
Attached a ``Config`` object to ``TTFont``.
- [otlLib] Replaced environment variable for GPOS compression level with an
equivalent option using the new config system.
- [designspaceLib] Incremented format version to 5.0 (2436).
Added discrete axes, variable fonts, STAT information, either design- or
user-space location on instances.
Added ``fontTools.designspaceLib.split`` module to split a designspace
into sub-spaces that interpolate and that represent the variable fonts
listed in the document.
Made instance names optional and allow computing them from STAT data instead.
Added ``fontTools.designspaceLib.statNames`` module.
Allow instances to have the same location as a previously defined STAT label.
Deprecated some attributes:
``SourceDescriptor``: ``copyLib``, ``copyInfo``, ``copyGroups``, ``copyFeatures``.
``InstanceDescriptor``: ``kerning``, ``info``; ``glyphs``: use rules or sparse
sources.
For both, ``location``: use the more explicit designLocation.
Note: all are soft deprecations and existing code should keep working.
Updated documentation for Python methods and the XML format.
- [varLib] Added ``build_many`` to build several variable fonts from a single
designspace document (2436).
Added ``fontTools.varLib.stat`` module to build STAT tables from a designspace
document.
- [otBase] Try to use the Harfbuzz Repacker for packing GSUB/GPOS tables when
``uharfbuzz`` python bindings are available (2552). Disable it by setting the
"fontTools.ttLib.tables.otBase:USE_HARFBUZZ_REPACKER" config option to ``False``.
If the option is set explicitly to ``True`` but ``uharfbuzz`` can't be imported
or fails to serialize for any reasons, an error will be raised (ImportError or
uharfbuzz errors).
- [CFF/T2] Ensure that ``pen.closePath()`` gets called for CFF2 charstrings (2577).
Handle implicit CFF2 closePath within ``T2OutlineExtractor`` (2580).
