Hello all,
This is probably not the right forum, but I thought that I would raise
it here anyhow in lack of a better place.
As you might have seen DejaVu Sans now includes Hebrew glyphs. These
look great in my system (especially since I was never able to
configure fontconfig for Hebrew to my liking), but there are a couple
of problem/questions:
The main problem, imo, is that the YUD does not have a roof in the
font, but the VAV and the NUN-SUFIT do. In my opinion this is
inconsistent, and I filed a bug report to that extent:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8145
I got no response to that bug report and I am considering getting cvs
access and just do the change myself. But I would like to hear some
others opinions on the matter before I do.
There are some other problems with nikud that are too close to the
base characters, but these can wait.
Looking forward to hearing some more opinions on the matter,
Dov
