Package: texlive-metapost Version: 2007-5 Severity: normal latexMP will in some cases get the bounding box wrong, particularly when there is a minus sign. In the example below, the two labels come out with different bounding boxes: the second one goes about .9pt below the baseline, for some strange reason. (Possibly this is a problem with the font rather than latexMP.)
