Hi there, fonts-texgyre maintainers. I am forwarding this (see below, from bug 740801) as the upstream poppler maintainers believe that there is a bug in "TeX Gyre Termes".
I have not yet verified the source code to see if the ligature is incorrectly implemented, but temporarily uninstalling fonts-texgyre makes the problem go away for programs that use poppler (like qpdfview, evince, atril). To avoid having the font blacklisted in fontconfig (which would simply kill the font for all purposes), perhaps a small patch could be implemented? When contacting me, please, keep me in CC's, as I am not subscribed to the bug, nor to the mailing list. Thanks, Rogério. ----- Forwarded message from Florian <fb...@gmx.net> ----- Date: Mon, 02 Jun 2014 17:07:55 +0200 From: Florian <fb...@gmx.net> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <740...@bugs.debian.org> Subject: Re: zathura: Ligatures, like "fi", are not rendered.
