Title:
  DejaVu Sans kerning regression with Freetype 2.4

Status in “freetype” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  With libfreetype 2.3.11-1ubuntu2.2, DejaVu Sans looks great. With
  libfreetype 2.4.2-1 installed (and everything else kept exactly the
  same), the kerning looks really ugly. To me, it's most noticeable
  before lowercase "u". I will attach before and after screenshots.

  I know the focus is on the Ubuntu Font Family for this release (which
  I'm dying to try), but we should make sure DejaVu continues to look
  good as well.
