Digging a bit more on that, the problem might be the font build system.
The most recent fonts-dejavu-extra package is shared across Jammy,
Kinetic and Lunar and it appears to be broken on all of them.
Rebuilding the package on Kinetic seems to be enough to fix the problem.
But that's not true for
These fonts are working fine in Focal (fonts-dejavu-
extra_2.37-1_all.deb) and broken in Jammy, Kinetic and Lunar (fonts-
dejavu-extra_2.37-2build1_all.deb).

It turns out the font files in our package are probably corrupt. I
tested with the files from the original source [0] and the problem
doesn't happen.
I also replaced the broken ones with the original ones, cleaned my font
cache and the problem appears to be gone.
Will try to find out when it
@Stephan, thanks for the update. I'm not going to close it as invalid
because as pointed out by people previously it seems the font didn't
have the issue in past series, even if the setting is non standard and
the priority low as a result there might still be an issue there.

Looking into this again, I found that I had the following line in
/etc/environment:
FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="truetype:interpreter-version=35 cff:no-stem-
darkening=1 autofitter:warping=1"
I can't remember why I set this, probably some hinting issues in an old Xubuntu
version.
Removing it causes v40
I just noticed that this font (and many others) are marked as
"experimental" even in the most recent version of the source [0] [1]. So
it might be broken in some scenarios.
I opened an issue to clarify if that might be the case [2].
Meanwhile, if you change your XFCE font settings like mentioned
Not sure where the problem is exactly but it can be reproduced like Juha
suggested.
On Xubuntu 22.04 if you go to Settings -> Appearance -> Fonts and set
"Hinting" to "Medium" or "Full" and have
FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="truetype:interpreter-version=35", all the

The broken font is only visible (at least for me) when using v35 of the
truetype interpreter i.e. FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="truetype:interpreter-
version=35" in the environment (required for horizontal hinting i.e.
non-blurry fonts). (EDIT: also requires hinting to be medium or full,
looks to be fine

the issue is not likely in the font nor the viewer but in the rendering
