Public bug reported:
Openoffice doesn't consider combining diacritics to be CTL and therefore
doesn't use the placement data available in some fonts. For example 'ɛ́ Ɛ́'
should display the combining acute on top of the ɛ, not merging with the Ɛ.
Some fonts like DejaVu Serif/Sans, Junicode, Doulos SIL, Charis SIL can place
those combining diacritics correctly but Openoffice does not allow it.
vcl/source/gdi/outdev3.cxx
has a line disabling CTL for the range 0x0300 to 0x0370
This should be removed.
Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package
'openoffice'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.
