[DejaVu-fonts] DejaVu Sans version 2.25 -- possible kerning issue with "yp"

[Boncek, J. <jb...@hu...>]

Using DejaVu Sans version 2.25 under GTK 2.10.2 with fontconfig and MontaVista Linux, the word "Type" appears to have a kerning issue at some sizes, with too much space between "y" and "p".  I have the recommended fontconfig files installed (excluding the "experimental" ones).

See the attached screen capture TypeTestDejaVu.png.  The same screen using Nimbus Sans L (TypeTestNimbus.png) does not exhibit the problem.  The names such as "A_20" correspond to the point size passed in a Pango font description, while the PIX: field gives the vertical height in pixels resulting, not that the latter is of any interest here.
