Summary: Liberation Mono is not really monospaced font
Product: Fedora
Version: 12
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: liberation-fonts
AssignedTo: cchance(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: kir(a)sacred.ru
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: petersen(a)redhat.com, cchance(a)redhat.com,
fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,
fedora-i18n-bugs(a)redhat.com
Estimated Hours: 0.0
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
When using Liberation Mono as a default monospace font in Firefox,
I have noticed that the lines of equal width (in terms of characters)
all have different width. It can clearly be seen on a screenshots that
I will attach shortly.
It took me about 15 minutes to understand it. I tried with Andale Mono and it
looks fine.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -q liberation-mono-fonts liberation-fonts-common fontconfig freetype
firefox fedora-release
liberation-mono-fonts-1.05.1.20090721-2.fc12.noarch
liberation-fonts-common-1.05.1.20090721-2.fc12.noarch
fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc12.x86_64
fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc12.i686
freetype-2.3.11-3.fc12.x86_64
freetype-2.3.11-3.fc12.i686
firefox-3.5.6-1.fc12.x86_64
fedora-release-12-2.noarch
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. make sure liberation mono is installed (rpm -q liberation-mono-fonts) and
available (fc-match 'liberation mono')
2. Open this page in your browser http://kir.sacred.ru/tmp/liberation-mono.html
3. Try increasing/decreasing text size (in case of Firefox use Ctrl with +/-).
Actual results:
Lines are of different width
Expected results:
Lines are of the same width

(1) I consider this is a major bug.
(2) A very interesting thing (if you look at screenshots) is we have different
relative line widths on different font sizes: say on lmbug3.png line #3 is
longest, while on lmbug1.png and lmbug2.png it is shortest!

This is becoming even more interesting. On a colleague's system (Fedora 11) it
looks fine, here's the versions of packages she have:
$ rpm -q liberation-mono-fonts liberation-fonts-common fontconfig freetype
firefox fedora-release
liberation-mono-fonts-1.04.93-10.fc11.noarch
liberation-fonts-common-1.04.93-10.fc11.noarch
fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc11.x86_64
fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc11.i586
freetype-2.3.9-5.fc11.i586
freetype-2.3.9-5.fc11.x86_64
firefox-3.5.6-1.fc11.x86_64
fedora-release-11-1.noarch

Firefox is not guilty -- I have just reproduced the issue using Mousepad text
editor from XFCE.

Downgrading freetype to version from F11 (ie 2.3.9-5) not helped.
Rebuilding the font package from src
(liberation-fonts-1.05.1.20090721-2.fc12.src.rpm) not helped
*Downgrading the font package (to a version from F11, ie 1.04.93-10.fc11) did
helped!*
So the problem lies somewhere in between 1.0.4 and 1.0.5
