Package: ttf-dejavu Version: 2.8-1 Severity: wishlist Today version 2.9 has been released. Lots of new glyphs have been added (see [1]); among those, Hebrew glyps. G-I uses freefont to render Hebrew text: my proposal would be to strip those initially, and ask native speaker what do they think about it and eventually include those once we have enough positive feedback.
The attached patch excludes the Hebrew glyphs mentioned in [1] from the udeb. There are probably other new glyphs not needed inside G-I, but at least those should not break anything.
