Bug ID: 1569943
Summary: upgrading from Liberation 1 to 2 in a desktop session
can affect rendering of text
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: liberation-fonts
Assignee: psatpute(a)redhat.com
Reporter: petersen(a)redhat.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org

Description of problem:
The Liberation 1 and 2 fonts may be binary incompatible
in the sense that upgrading a live desktop from Liberation 1 to 2
seemed to corrupt some characters for me in Firefox (with Ariel text in
Google Docs for the default unordered list mark symbols).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
liberation-fonts-2.00.1
Actual results:
'·' -> '>'
'⃝' -> '<'
for example
Expected results:
Not change of glyphs.
Additional info:
I suspect this might be due to caching of the old font's tables in memory.
It would be better if the tables were more compatible I suppose.
