           Summary: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono font not rendered correctly
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kennell at ecn.purdue.edu


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:          Linux

For some types of text, the Bitstream Vera Sans Mono font is not rendered correctly.  Some characters are rendered with double width depending on their color or bold attribute.  The effect is most pronounced in the lxdialog display of the Linux kernel "make menuconfig".

I'll attempt to attach examples below.

This only happens when I use Konsole with Bitstream Vera Sans Mono.  Changing the font corrects the problem.  I do not see the problem when using this font in gnome-terminal.  The size of the font is irrelevant.

This problem may be related to Bug 52538.
