Package: kde
Version: 5:48
Severity: normal
The default font for pidgin/licq is Sans Regular, which makes
capital I looks like the small l. I have in pidgin set to use font from system
theme.
I just told a friend (via IM) to press alt-sysrq-l to trace a kernel problem,
and he pressed alt-sysrq-i, because the letters were indistinguishable with the
default font.
I am using pidgin, he's using licq.
The font for konsole is sane, why not use that as the default GUI font?
The default font is also annoying when sending pieces of code via IM, since you
need to copy+paste it to actually read it.

pidgin and licq are not even KDE applications. Please report new bugs on these
packages if you still have this problem.
