--- Comment #1 from Jan Pazdziora jpazdziora@redhat.com --- This seems to be a manifestation of bug 1753295.
When I tried to rebuild the bitmap-fonts using the fonttosfnt approach from bug 1753295 comment 4, I get Lucida displayed but the linespaces are increased, making the result unusable.
The same problem for Terminus is tracked as bug 1748495.

--- Comment #5 from Jan Pazdziora jpazdziora@redhat.com --- I've now attached screenshots showing what the original PCF font looks like with Pango from Fedora 30, and how with new Pango in Fedora 31 and fonts converted to OTB using commands from comment 2 have extra line spacing.

--- Comment #6 from Hans Ulrich Niedermann rhbugs@n-dimensional.de --- What is that "Terminal" software you are showing in those screenshots?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1767384
--- Comment #7 from Jan Pazdziora jpazdziora@redhat.com --- I'm using xfce4-terminal.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1767384
--- Comment #8 from Jan Pazdziora jpazdziora@redhat.com --- The issue is still present on Fedora 32 with pango-1.44.7-3.fc32.

--- Comment #9 from Jan Pazdziora jpazdziora@redhat.com --- Installing bitmap-lucida-typewriter-opentype-fonts-0.3-33.fc32.noarch instead of the non-opentype package makes the letters in the terminal show up. However, there is an extra white space between lines, making the terminal space wasted and basically unusable.

--- Comment #10 from Jan Pazdziora jpazdziora@redhat.com --- Tomáš has reported the spacing problem in bug 1839471.
So I guess this bugzilla could be closed as CURRENTRELEASE because some fix happened, and the spacing problem tracked in bug 1839471.

--- Comment #11 from Peng Wu pwu@redhat.com --- Okay, close bug now.
