Whenever you grub-mkfont is used to convert truetype fonts to PFF2 fonts, it 
generates several errors.  For example:
grub-mkfont -v -s 12 -r 0x0-0x7F -o ~/Documents/dejavu-sans-12.pf2 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf
gives the following error:
        Unknown gsub feature 0x63636d70 (ccmp)
        Unknown gsub feature 0x63636d70 (ccmp)

This happens with any TTF font.  Depending on the font, it, may generate more 
or less errors.  Converting X11's .pcf.gz works just fine.


This is a long-standing issue with grub-mkfont that started somewhere in the 
later releases of 1.98.  This never occurred in earlier releaes of 1.98.  Will 
it be fixed in the 2.00 release?
