Hi, bubulle has kindly uploaded the new version of ttf-dejavu (2.16-1). I took the usual screenshots; please refer to [1] to see what changed since version 2.15.
The screenshots can be found in [2], where you can see what changed
from the previous version.
You'll notice there are many differences: it is a bug in pango, which
is said to be currently worked on.
For those who care here is a conversation on #dejavu about the problem:
<moyogo> i think it's the latn {DNK DFLT} that makes pango overkern
<moyogo> i think it's this bug
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334758
<moyogo> it only seems to be affecting Latin script, so it's probably
overkerning with pango
<zinosat> but what triggered it just starting with 2.16?
<eugen> kerning classes?
<moyogo> no
<moyogo> it's the two languages DNK and dflt
<moyogo> before 2.16 the kerning was only latn {dflt}
<moyogo> now it's latn {DNK, dflt}
<eugen> moyogo: is there any reason why pango is not fixed yet?
<eugen> or do they think that this is not a bug?
<Med> if DejaVu doesn't break things, they won't be fixed
<moyogo> no, behdad wants to fix it, but i think he wants to fix bigger
things in the process
regards,
Davide
