Package: fonts-freefont-ttf
Version: 20120503-4
Severity: normal

Hello,

Currently, the monospaced variant of the font (FreeMono.ttf) doesn't
correctly set the PANOSE proportion value (bProportion) for the font.
The version directly provided by the FreeFont project contains the
correct PANOSE proportion value.

The proportion value for the font should be 9, which marks the font as
monospaced. Lacking this value and relying exlcusively on advance width
leaves some environments unable to properly use the font.

To set this value, see for example this post:

Thanks! The reduced number of glyphs is most probably due to the
Braille range being dropped on purpose.
