Title:
  Qt displays half width character as full width in some Japanese fonts

Status in qt4-x11 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in qt4-x11 source package in Lucid:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: libqtgui4

  There is the problem that Qt displays half width character
  (e.g. alphabet) as full width in some Japanese fonts.
  This problem was reported in #QTBUG-1726
  <http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-1726>.

  This occurs in the following fonts.
  - Monospace font
  - Selif font
  - IPA font (Ver.0301)
  - NSimSun

  In Cario and fontconfig etc., the FT_LOAD_IGNORE_GLOBAL_ADVANCE_WIDTH
  is specified as flag of FT_Load_Glyph function to solve this problem.

  According to the document of freetype,
  this flag exists to support buggy CJK fonts.
  http://www.freetype.org/freetype2/docs/reference/ft2-base_interface.html#FT_LOAD_XXX

  This patch is already merged in Qt4.7 branch.
