Public bug reported:

Affects: pango1.0 libpango1.0-0 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Boot up Breezy. Get a font that has kerning. I used a snapshot of DejaVu
(http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/snapshots/dejavu-ttf-20060308-626.tar.gz)
because it makes the problem obvious. The font looks fine in Breezy. Now
install the latest version of libpango1.0-0 from Dapper
(1.11.99-0ubuntu2). The kerning is really ugly. It's still ugly with all
the latest packages from Dapper.
