Hi !

I've just been assigned a bug report on a font package I maintain in Fedora [1].

...

From my understanding, the bug is in the TTF file itself.

I'm not very familiar with fonts (I took over this package as it was orphaned and needed by the fedora-olpc effort), so I don't really know how I should proceed to fix it.

Is there a way for me to patch the TTF file ? Does this belong upstream, so I should report it to the font developer ?

Any hint would be greatly appreciated.

You should be able to handle this with a basic fontforge script [2]

Alerting the developer is always a good idea.
