Source: freetype Version: 2.5.2-3 Severity: important Hi,
After some minor changes in a forum of a lug, I found that I could no longer read it in Debian (neither with chromium, nor firefox, neither in jessie nor in sid), while the text was readable in Ubuntu, Arch and other distros (used among the other lug members). The forum changed to a different font so the page is readable in Debian again, but the issue is reproducible with: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Fira+Sans which is showing the character list blank and the only preview that seems to work is the Light Italic one, compare this to https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Source+Sans+Pro which shows the full output. Using the chromium inspect object, I manage to obtain the corresponding woff2 url: https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/firasans/v6/EjsrzDkQUQCDwsBtLpcVQVtXRa8TVwTICgirnJhmVJw.woff2 Using: https://github.com/google/woff2 I converted the woff2 font to ttf and the decompressed ttf showed the same behaviour (It can't be rendered in Debian, but it renders fine in Ubuntu). Using fontforge the font can be edited with no problems in any distro. For convenience I've left the decompressed ttf file in: http://freak.gnuservers.com.ar/~maxy/debian/fira.ttf I'm not completely sure if the problem is really a bug in freetype or in some other library. Please reassign as you see fit.
