David, I am sorry for not being clear. I subscribe to the list https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-fonts-devel and I get the mail "[Pkg-fonts-devel] fontforge pending issues and uploading to experimental". The package font-pecita is involved because it is FTBS. I am asked to clarify the cause to help in assigning the bug to fonts-pecita or fontforge. I replied that the bug is in FontForge and its scope is much larger: it is a malfunction of ExpandStroke. I do not want to act as a troll and I request you to communicate with the developers on this subject. Please reply to the persons in CC, not to myself, I act as intermediary.
