Package: libfreetype6 Version: 2.6.3-3 Tags: upstream, fixed-upstream, patch
Hi, FreeType wrongly detects a glyphs with multiple references to the same glyph, which has itself references, as broken. Somebody already reported it upstream [0] and it's already fixed upstream [1]. This affects for example DejaVu fonts: $ ftlint 10 /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf: glyph 752: 0x0015 glyph 4703: 0x0015 glyph 4704: 0x0015 glyph 4731: 0x0015 glyph 4732: 0x0015 glyph 4753: 0x0015 glyph 4754: 0x0015 glyph 4759: 0x0015 glyph 4760: 0x0015 9 fails. $ As a consequence Scribus refuses to load DejaVu fonts at all and LibreOffice can't display U+033F. The upstream patch applies without problems (ignoring the changelog) and fixes the problem. Upgrading to an newer upstream release should of course also fix the problem.
