Bug#881541: ghostscript: renders wrong glyphs with libfreetype6 2.8.1-0.1
Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.22~dfsg-1
Severity: normal
Ghostscript renders many fonts incorrectly after
upgrading libfreetype7 from 2.8-0.2 to 2.8.1-0.1.
For example running this:
/DejaVuSerif findfont 12 scalefont setfont
9 9 moveto (abcd)show
displays a text that looks like "DEFG" (as if there was an offset of
-29 in ASCII values). The same thing happens when using glyphshow:
/T glyphshow displays as "7".
This happens with many other fonts as well, most showing the same wrong
glyphs, others having different offset, and few still rendering correctly.
