recipes-graphics: Add more detailed SUMMARY and DESCRIPTIONS
Add more detailed SUMMARY and DESCRIPTIONS to various graphics and
graphics related components. I've recently gotten question from users
what something is, or why it was needed.. this should go a long way toward
answering those questions.
Many of the descriptions were taken directly from the upstream location,
where one was not available the Debian packages were consulted for
information.

Unlike the core fonts system, it \ +supports features such as anti-aliasing and sub-pixel rasterisation. \ +Perhaps more importantly, it gives applications full control over the \ +way glyphs are rendered, making fine typesetting and WYSIWIG display \ +possible. Finally, it allows applications to use fonts that are not \ +installed system-wide for displaying documents with embedded fonts. Xft \ +is not compatible with the core fonts system: usage of Xft requires \ +fairly extensive changes to toolkits (user-interface libraries)." require xorg-lib-common.inc |
