--- Comment #6 from Mattia Verga <mattia.ve...@proton.me> ---
Tha specific test was introduced in LO 25.2, so it wasn't there before.
However, I did see other tests failing before 25.2 with similar output, some of
them were related to Noto Sans Hebrew, some other to Noto Sans Arabic and, if I
remember correctly, also happened with DejaVu Sans.

As for the "do we really need it" question, I don't know... I was wondering if
there was some sort of inheritance between Noto Sans and Noto Sans Hebrew. I
suppose the test using 'tdf157829-ltr.fodt' template is passing because for
what I see the template uses the Hebrew font style embedded within a Noto Sans
styled paragraph, while 'tdf157829-rtl.fodt' template just uses a plain Noto
Sans Hebrew styled paragraph.

I never wrote anything using Hebrew or Arabic fonts, so I don't know what
impact has on usability for the end user having to switch from variant to base
for every missing glyph. Do we know what other major linux distributions do
about these font variants? If it is common that the majority ship the trimmed
set, I can try to persuade LO upstream to fix the tests for this case.
