[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: fonts-liberation
Version: 2.00.1-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Liberation 2 fonts lack the high-quality hinting used in Liberation 1 fonts.
Please allow users to choose Liberation 1 fonts.
I have attached two tiny snapshots snippets showing a Thunar toolbar with
Liberation Sans 11pt at 96 dpi set as the desktop font. Full hinting is set in
both cases, with antialiasing and no subpixel hinting. Yes, full hinting,
although you would not believe it from looking at the Liberation 2 snapshot,
which is a blurry mess.
This problem has been known since 2012:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856239
Even Fedora has not switched to Liberation 2, not in Fedora 24, or even in the
upcoming Fedora 25. If Red Hat will not eat their own dog food, why should
Debian?
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/liberation-fonts
Please either downgrade fonts-liberation to use 1.07-4 or split these two fonts
into two different packages as they are quite different.
Kind regards,
Ben.

Agreed. After encountering new Liberation fonts on Arch, I was very happy that Debian did not pull this version of Liberation for several years until now. Hinting is really terrible.

what do you suggest? Should we re-introduce fonts-liberation 1.x as
fonts-liberation1 package with "Breaks: fonts-liberation" (and maybe the
Condensed style split out into a fonts-liberation1-sans-condensed
package)?
Thanks!

I'm not sure what I suggest, introducing a fonts-liberation-1.7 source package
seems backward to me. Maybe just file an upstream bug?

There is an upstream bug, filed in 2012. Red Hat have had four years to
address this problem. Their fix was to kick Liberation 2 out of Fedora
18 and stick with Liberation 1:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856239
Fedora 25 is still scheduled to use Liberation 1.
I think this was a sensible decision as the new SIL licence and extra
glyphs do not in my view compensate for the loss of decent hinting.
Liberation 1 was a magnificent achievement and is still a good choice
today. It is by no means obsolete. I am yet to find another open source
font family that is as readable and versatile and also plays nicely with
fontconfig.
The main problem is that Red Hat decided to reuse the Liberation name;
if they had chosen a new name, we would not be having this problem.
Kind regards,

Perhaps a fonts-liberation1 and fonts-liberation2 that "Breaks:" each
other and both provide the same virtual package? Ideally the virtual
package would be called fonts-liberation, but this is taken by the
current non-virtual package. I do not know the cleanest way to handle a
transition from a non-virtual to a virtual package. This might require
the advice of an apt guru.
Splitting out the condensed (I think they call it narrow?) font might be
unnecessary complexity at this stage.

I didn't even know (or maybe simply forgot) that Fedora reverted back
to using Liberation 1.x for quality concerns. If this is still the
case, as you state it, we should maybe follow suit and simply re-upload
the previous package as 1:1.07.4-2 (i.e. with an epoch).

The Google CrOS Core Fonts in the fonts-croscore package are mostly the
same as the Liberation 2.x fonts with changed names. It would be
interesting if you could provide a critical review with regard to
hinting. I myself seem to be mostly blind to such subtle details. :/

We could still have both font versions in separate packages with
slightly different names and simple Breaks relations. No virtual
packages and Apt Voodoo required.

If we re-introduced fonts-liberation 1.x with a different package name,
we'd have to pass the NEW queue again, anyway. So, splitting the
condensed style into a separate package would be no problem.

Fabian, re-uploading with epoch 1 seems like a good solution
(1:1.07.4-2). Adding an epoch is exactly how Fedora implemented the
switch back to Liberation 1:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=721797
I am not a font expert and have no opinion on the relative merits of
hinting in Liberation 1 versus croscore.

Does anyone have objections against "temoprarily" re-uploading
fonts-liberation 1.07 until the hinting issues have been addressed
upstream (and the font is deemed "good enough" for Fedora)?

There is nothing more permanent than "temporary".
IMHO, that would be the best decision in current circumstances. Liberation v1 has high quality hinting. Autohint fails miserably on hairline glyph rendering. Perhaps it would not matter any more when ultra hi-res displays become a majority and no glyph would need to be rendered 1 pixel thick. But not today.

I will re-upload 1.07.x soon.
Also, I have an idea for fonts-liberation 2.x: I'd like to package them
in a separate source package and make the binary package co-installable
with fonts-liberation 1.07.x by installing the actual TTF files into a
different directory (e.g. /u/s/fonts/liberation2). Since the fonts
share the same names, fontconfig will always prefer the 2.x variants
because of their higher version numbers. This way, it is possible to
override fonts-liberation for most packages using fontforge (and not
explicitely accessing the fonts by full path) while still keeping the
Sans Narrow variant available. I would document this in README.Debian.
What do you think?
