Package: scalable-cyrfonts-tex
Version: 4.13
Severity: normal

Hi,

I get wrong glyps with packages from the "scalable cyrfonts" bundle (a
black box instead the German eszett (ß) letter).

This is already reported (also for the Polish ł), however a broken font
is a bug, not a wishlist item.

Minimal example:

\documentclass{minimal}

% \usepackage{newcent}    % works fine
\usepackage{cyrnewcent}
% \usepackage{cyrbookman}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
 
\begin{document}
Stra\ss e
\end{document}

While in this example there is an easy workaround (use the standard
package "newcent" from PSNFSS), the bug becomes a problem in a mixed
German/Russian document.

Simple fix: 

* Remove T1 and OT1 encoded fonts from "scalable-cyrfonts-tex" if there
  is a corresponding PSNFSS font.

* add substitution definitions to use the free cyrfonts for the
  corresponding PSNFSS fonts in T2A, T2B, T2C, and X2 encoding.

E.g. 

t2afbk.fd --> t2apbk.fd

- \DeclareFontFamily{T2A}{fbk}{}
+ \DeclareFontFamily{T2A}{pbk}{}

- \DeclareFontShape{T2A}{fbk}{m}{n}{   <-> fbkr6a }{}
+ \DeclareFontShape{T2A}{pbk}{m}{n}{   <-> fbkr6a }{}

...
