Probably, it caused by URW fonts problem and/or Pango version.

In my experiment, with newest URW fonts release (commit date is 2015-08-28)
and newest Pango (version 1.36.8, 2014-09), there is no problem.
Attached file is the result.


First, the previous URW fonts release (commit date is 2015-08-25) seems broken.
It has "Nimbus Sans Regular", "Nimbus Sans L Bold",
"Nimbus Sans L Regular Italic", "Nimbus Sans L Bold Italic".
Only "Regular" font's family name is "Nimbus Sans"
but others are "Nimbus Sans L".

The newest URW fonts release has no "Nimbus Sans" but "Nimbus Sans L".

Next, we use old Pango (version 1.28.3, 2010-09) in GUB.
In four years, many bugs would have been fixed.


So I'll make a GUB's patch that updates URW fonts and Pango.


Would I create an Issue on tracker?
How can I do so?
Or, would someone create it?
