[Touch-packages] [Bug 1992369] Re: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken
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 Jammy. So I suppose whatever was broken (maybe it fontforge?) was fixed in the version we use in Kinetic. A no-change build is probably enough to fix the issue on Kinetic and Lunar. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fonts-dejavu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1992369 Title: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken Status in fontforge package in Ubuntu: New Status in fonts-dejavu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-font-viewer package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: After updating from Focal to Jammy, I noticed that DejaVu Serif Italic looks quite broken.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1992369] Re: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken
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 of the interpreter to be used, fixing the broken letters. The font is obviously broken when used with v35, but few people are going to notice unless they're as clumsy as me, so you may want to close the ticket. I also found out that `ftview` from the freetype2-demos package is great for investigating these issues, as it lets you cycle through all the relevant settings.

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 DejaVuSerif...Italic fonts appear to break. Either changing the interpreter version to 38 or 40 [0] or setting "hinting" to "Slight" seems to be a workaround.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1992369] Re: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken
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 with slight or none.) With the default interpreter (v40) it looks fine. And the problem is in the font package itself: installing package fonts- dejavu-extra from Focal fixes the font also for v35. If the font itself has not changed from Focal to Jammy, then the problem might be in the build system (fontforge?). ** Changed in: fonts-dejavu (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fonts-dejavu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1992369 Title: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken Status in fonts-dejavu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-font-viewer package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After updating from Focal to Jammy, I noticed that DejaVu Serif Italic looks quite broken.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1992369] Re: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken
the issue is not likely in the font nor the viewer but in the rendering stack, I can't confirm here either. Could you give a bit more details on the desktop environment/fonts settings/locale you are using and include the output of $ gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.desktop.interface | grep font ? ** Changed in: gnome-font-viewer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fonts-dejavu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1992369 Title: DejaVu Serif Italic capital letters and digits broken Status in fonts-dejavu package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gnome-font-viewer package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After updating from Focal to Jammy, I noticed that DejaVu Serif Italic looks quite broken.
