Description:
After upgrade of packages terminus-font and libxfont my diacratic characters (Polish ęóąśłżźćń) aren't displayed properly
Downgrading libxfont to version 1.4.7-2 solves the problem
I suspect it's not an upstream bug, as upstream version remains the same, only package version has changed (-2 vs. buggy -3)
Attahced you can see an image with squares instead of characters

Additional info:
* package version(s)
terminus-font 4.39-1
libxfont 1.4.7-2

* config and/or log files etc.
nothing done apart from upgrading packages

Steps to reproduce:
Do the upgrade.

Is it still an issue with libxfont 1.5.0 ?
