Subject: ugly greek letter m (U+03BC) in liberation sans regular
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 20:54:11 +0200
Package: ttf-liberation
Version: 1.04.92-1
Severity: normal
After updating to version 1.04.92-1 the character μ (U+03BC, GREEK
SMALL LETTER MU) appears ugly
when using Liberation Sans.
When using Liberation Sans Bold, Italic and all the variants of
Liberation Serif and Mono, μ appears OK.
You can see the problem in GNOME Character Map, when using Liberation
Sans as GNOME's default
application font and in Firefox.
I am attaching a small html to demonstrate the problem:
