Package: libfont-ttf-perl
Version: 0.45-1
Severity: wishlist

libfont-ttf-perl has not seen any update since 2008. And new upstream
version 0.48 has been available since December 2010 [1].

  [1] http://search.cpan.org/dist/Font-TTF/

Note that the upgrade is a prerequisite for packaging
libfont-ttf-scripts-perl [2]

  [2] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=614917

For Perl Group, also packaging that one would be much appreciated.
It's quite useful for manipulating fonts for complex text languages.

Thank you.
