Package: fonts-fantasque-sans
Version: 1.7~alpha.2~dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

The font Fantasque Sans Mono is described as being suitable for
programmers. However, its glyphs fail to sufficiently distinguish
important characters.

In particular:

* The glyphs for accent characters <U+0060 `>, <U+00B4 ´> do not match
  correctly. They should be left-right mirror images, but instead the
  “grave” accent incorrectly looks like a single-open-quote glyph.

* The single-quote characters <U+0027 '>, <U+2018 ‘>, <U+2019 ’> have
  glyphs that are virtually indistinguishable. The <U+0027 '> glyph
  should not be left or right biased.

  By comparison, the double-quote characters <U+0022 ">, <U+201C “>,
  <U+201D ”> have conventional and sufficiently distinct glyphs.

There may be other glyphs which in this font are unhelpful to
programmers, but these have caught my attention.
