[ Fix ] Poppler upstream fixed this by adding a lookup table to fall back to the second scheme if necessary. [ QA ] 1. Install tex-gyre 2. Download https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1317599/+attachment/4213588/+files/rfa1415_15sep_lect1.pdf 3. Open the file in evince 4. Look at "Biometrics: file" on page 3 If the "fi" ligature in "file" is not displayed, you have this bug. "file" should be displayed normally after it's fixed. [ Regression potential ] Since this patch implements a fallback only when lookup false, there shouldn't be any problems. Still, check all existing PDFs are still displayed correctly. [ Original report ] While there's Bug #1325230 with the same title and the linked PDFs there are working fine here (displaying "fi" correctly) there seems to be still some bug regarding ligatures. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1325230 I have some PDFs substituting Helvetica (and others) with TeX Gyre Heros and showing no "fi" ligature. I attached a patch I derived from the patch in Bug #1325230 which is working fine. Now it uses Nimbus Sans L and the ligatures are fine.
