Package: fonts-inconsolata
Version: 001.010-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

I've noticed that in a few cases rxvt-unicode has problems with font
fallback for some unicode characters with Inconsolata 1.010.

You can reproduce the problem as follows:

1. open a terminal and run "urxvt -fn xft:inconsolata:medium:size=12"
2. execute: LANG="en_US.utf8" man groff | less -p bug-groff

Have a look at the borked characters surrounding email-addresses and
urls.  With Inconsolata 1.011 everything seems to be fine.

I'm running rxvt-unicode-256color (version 9.15) and my .fonts.conf
looks like this:

<match target="font" >
  <test name="family" >
    <string>Inconsolata</string>
  </test>
  <edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
    <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
  <edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
    <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
  <edit mode="assign" name="autohint" >
    <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
  <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
    <const>hintslight</const>
  </edit>
  <edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
    <const>none</const>
  </edit>
</match>


cheers,
  erik
