Package: emacs-gtk Version: 1:28.2+1-10 Severity: normal Tags: l10n Dear Maintainer,
To reproduce: 1. Install fonts-noto-core 2. Start Emacs 3. Press 'C-h h' to show the sample Muliligual page How to tell the difference: The Rashi script is not that different from normal printed Hebrew for most letters. Some letters are different. In case of the sample text, one letter is noticably different: The right-most character of that line on the script is the letter Shin. See the shape of normal print Hebrew vs. the cursive form and the Rashi one in: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_(letter)#Hebrew_Shin_/_Sin When I pres 'C-u C-x =' I get: position: 1734 of 3715 (47%), column: 42 character: ש (displayed as ש) (codepoint 1513, #o2751, #x5e9) charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646)) code point in charset: 0x05E9 script: hebrew syntax: w which means: word category: .:Base, R:Strong R2L to input: type "C-x 8 RET 5e9" or "C-x 8 RET HEBREW LETTER SHIN" buffer code: #xD7 #xA9 file code: #xD7 #xA9 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix) display: composed to form "שָׁ" (see below) Composed with the following character(s) "ָׁ" using this font: ftcrhb:-GOOG-Noto Rashi Hebrew-normal-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1 by these glyphs: [0 2 1473 53 0 0 4 -1 4 [3 0 0]] [0 2 1464 67 0 0 2 11 -9 [5 0 0]] [0 2 1513 66 8 0 8 10 1 nil] with these character(s): ָ (#x5b8) HEBREW POINT QAMATS ׁ (#x5c1) HEBREW POINT SHIN DOT Character code properties: customize what to show name: HEBREW LETTER SHIN general-category: Lo (Letter, Other) decomposition: (1513) ('ש') Rashi is generally an older cursive script of Hebrew. It was once used in handwritten letters (I have some letters written in it that are less than 100 years old). Nowadays it is mostly known for its use in some parts of a Talmud page. So I see here two issues: 1. does Noto Rashi Hebrew belong in the core set? Rashi is not useful for daily Hebrew usage. It does not add coverage of new code points, AFAIK. 2. I should never get Rashi by default for Hebrew. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: arm64 Kernel: Linux 6.0.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_IL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_IL:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages emacs-gtk depends on: ii emacs-bin-common 1:28.2+1-10 ii emacs-common 1:28.2+1-10 ii libacl1 2.3.1-3 ii libasound2 1.2.8-1+b1 ii libc6 2.36-8 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-7 ii libdbus-1-3 1.14.4-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.14.1-3 ii libfreetype6 2.12.1+dfsg-4 ii libgccjit0 12.2.0-14 ii libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 2.42.10+dfsg-1+b1 ii libgif7 5.2.1-2.5 ii libglib2.0-0 2.74.4-1 ii libgmp10 2:6.2.1+dfsg1-1.1 ii libgnutls30 3.7.8-4 ii libgpm2 1.20.7-10+b1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.36-1 ii libharfbuzz0b 6.0.0-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.10-1 ii libjansson4 2.14-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:2.1.2-1+b1 ii liblcms2-2 2.14-1+b1 ii libm17n-0 1.8.0-5 ii libotf1 0.9.16-3+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.50.12+ds-1 ii libpng16-16 1.6.39-2 ii librsvg2-2 2.54.5+dfsg-1 ii libselinux1 3.4-1+b4 ii libsm6 2:1.2.3-1 ii libsystemd0 252.4-1 ii libtiff6 4.5.0-3 ii libtinfo6 6.4-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.8.3-3 ii libxext6 2:1.3.4-1+b1 ii libxfixes3 1:6.0.0-2 ii libxml2 2.9.14+dfsg-1.1+b2 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1.1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.13.dfsg-1 Versions of packages emacs-gtk recommends: ii fonts-noto-color-emoji 2.038-1 Versions of packages emacs-gtk suggests: pn emacs-common-non-dfsg <none> -- no debconf information
