Bug#841957: libgs9-common: URW fonts: Missing glyphs for uk language
Package: libgs9-common
Version: 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
In ghostscript-9.06 present in Jessie repository there are no Ukrainian and
Russian glyphs in a number of fonts. Namely, in all the URW family.
These fonts are invisible in LibreOffice, for example.
I checked it using the following command:
$ fc-validate -l uk /usr/share/ghostscript/9.06/Resource/Font/URWBookmanL-Ligh
/usr/share/ghostscript/9.06/Resource/Font/URWBookmanL-Ligh:0 Missing 72
glyph(s) to satisfy the coverage for uk language
$ fc-validate -l ru /usr/share/ghostscript/9.06/Resource/Font/URWBookmanL-Ligh
/usr/share/ghostscript/9.06/Resource/Font/URWBookmanL-Ligh:0 Missing 66
glyph(s) to satisfy the coverage for ru language
I reported this bug upstream:
http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697224
however, they answered that everything is allright in the newer Ghostscript
version, and the only way to get this working is to upgrade to the lates
version.
