Created attachment 126733 [details] Screenshot of defective kerning
Description of problem: I'm not sure if this is the right component, but when selecting DejaVu font as the "Application Font", the Te charcters overlap way to much Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dejavu-fonts-2.4-1.fc5 dejavu-fonts-fontconfig-2.4-1.fc5 fontconfig-2.3.94-1 fontconfig-devel-2.3.94-1 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to System->Preferences->Fonts (BTW, what is the warning dialog that pops up and disappers when you select this dialog) 2.Select DejaVu Sans Book 9 as the font 3.Look under the Applications->Accessories Look at the Take Screen Shot, Terminal entries. You'll see that they are over lapping too much. Actual results: T bar should not touch the e Expected results: Proper kerning Additional info: This did not happen with the initial install of FC5, it seems to have appeared when dejavu-fonts-fontconfig was updated. Also see the attached screenshot and look at the "Terminal" menu bar and look at the capital T character.
Appears to be a bug in the DejaVu 2.4 fonts... See this thread... http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=10015103&forum_id=40874
