Since 2.37+18+g9b5d1b2f-2, the rendering has been broken on
my system. Please compare the attached screenshots.
Replacing the file /usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSerif-Italic.ttf with the one from the previous version fixes the problem. You can reproduce as follows: `pango-view --font italic test.txt` Replace `italic` with the appropriate string if DejaVu is not the default font on your system. test.txt should contain the letter M. Broken version: 2.37+18+g9b5d1b2f-2 Working version: 2.37-3 |

Please apply the attached patch.
fontforge issue:
https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/issues/4419
This issue is obsolete. The bug was in fontforge, not the font,
and has since been fixed. The font has also been rebuild since the
fontforge release, so should be fine. I'm rebuilding it for other
reasons right now but that should make this doubly closed.
