Description:

These are the chinese numbers 1,2,3: 一二三

You'll note that they're three lines with the same "style"; just plain lines.

Since the latest package update, the 一 renders very different. It's like an arrow, with a thin stroke and a bold tip on the right. It's undeniably different from the other numbers.

To reproduce this:

- Run `leafpad`.
- Options > Fonts
- In the preview field, paste `一二三`
- Pick as a font something unrelated, like Open Sans, or Fantasque Sans Mono.
- The first one will render different.

However, if you explicitly pick a font named "Noto Sans CJK", the glyph renders as expected, which makes me think that a non-CJK font from `noto-fonts` is being preferred for this glyph.

Downgrading to 20201226-2 fixes the issue.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 20220502-1
* Haven't reported this upstream yet, no entirely sure where the issue lies.
This task depends upon
