Using the compfonts script (available in my folder on our team repository, a lot quicker than with gucharmap) I can see that: Ө U+04E8 CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER BARRED O ө U+04E9 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER BARRED O Ү U+04AE CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER STRAIGHT U ү U+04AF CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER STRAIGHT U are available in ttf-sil-charis, ttf-sil-doulos, ttf-dejavu, some fonts in gsfonts (and maybe other packages, I didn't check the whole archive as the script runs the comparison on installed fonts only and I didn't take time to install every font). Looks like we already have what is needed but could you also test on your side and confirm that these open fonts provide appropriate support? > Anton Zinoviev Cheers, -- Nicolas Spalinger, NRSI volunteer Debian/Ubuntu font teams / OpenFontLibrary http://planet.open-fonts.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
