Package: ttf-dejavu Version: 2.12-1 Severity: grave Tags: patch This version of DejaVu fonts contains condensed fonts with value for width set to "Medium", but it should really be "Semi-Condensed". New fontconfig uses this value to select prefered font, and it selects DejaVu Sans Condensed and DejaVu Serif Condensed as default fonts for "sans" and "serif". Those fonts contain no instructions, so looks bad on the screen. Also in some situations it is not possible to select Book variants at all. See also bugs #401411 and #401443. This bug is fixed in r1363 in svn repository, patch is also attached to this report.
Note: to see difference after upgrading ttf-dejavu you'll need to reconfigure fontconfig. But I think it is bug in fontconfig and I allready reported it (should be in #401411). -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.19-me Locale: LANG=uk_UA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=uk_UA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages ttf-dejavu depends on: ii defoma 0.11.10 Debian Font Manager -- automatic f ttf-dejavu recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
