So this is effectively a bug in fonts-cantarell which is fixed in
versions >= 0.0.23. So we need to add a breaks in libharfbuzz on a fixed
version. Unfortunately, a newer upstream version of fonts-cantarell is
currently blocked on a newer fontforge (see #818964 and #745732).

In the mean time, we might want to cherry pick the upstream fix here:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/cantarell-fonts/commit/?id=434a116b0941cd794e6eec0613b7479d2c96503e
