[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1881364] Re: broken kerning
The env variable SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN seems to select which plugin from /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libvclplug_*lo.so to load, maybe some sort of desktop integration driver. In this case the plugin comes with the package libreoffice-qt5 which seems to be compiled from the libreoffice source itself. But still unclear whether this is a problem of this plugin itself or of that many Q5t libraries it is linked against. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881364 Title: broken kerning Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, I am just trying to debug a problem with impress I have after upgrading from 18.04 to 20.04: On some, not on all slides, text becomes - unreadable due to negative kerning, i.e. characters are shifted so close together that they are overlapping - one slide even invisible.

Strangely, the effect occurs - with libreoffice as a debian package - with libreoffice as an AppImage downloaded from libreoffice.org - *but not* with libreoffice as a snap (which doesn't solve the problem because of other problems of accessing local fonts) Unfortunately, I can't give the slides as an example, they're strictly confidential. But I'm trying to build an example. Just to bring people together who experience the same problem.
