Source: msttcorefonts Followup-For: Bug #1130660 X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] Control: retitle -1 ttf-mscorefonts-installer: verdana font misses the ẞ character
This is a known issue that is unlikely to get fixed, quoting from archwiki, "The fonts provided by these packages are out-of-date and are missing modern hinting instructions and the full character sets". The upstream fonts [1] have not been updated since 2003. If you wish to get a fixed version of the verdana font, follow the archwiki guide [2] to manually extract the newest font files from MS Windows ISO images, the guide works for debian too. Make sure to remove the msttcorefonts package if you manually extract the fonts from the ISO.
