[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#736346: Bug#736346: dejavu: Ligatures (such as fi, ff, and ffi) are displayed as foreign characters in iceweasel.

[Alex Rozenshteyn <rpglover64@gmail.com>]

Downgrading to version 2.33+svn2514-3 did not fix it.

Upgrading Iceweasel to 24.2.0esr-1 and restarting it fixed it.

That's strange and I could not reproduce that issue on my system using
Iceweasel 24.2.0 and fonts-dejavu 2.34-1. Can you confirm that
downgrading the fonts-dejavu packages to the previous version [1] fixes
the problem?
