[Bug 1769330] Re: 18.04 regression: liberation text highlight is too small in web browsers.

 

have the same issue, somehow it was also affecting the font highlighting inside anki for CJK languages, and caused vertical "cut-offs" for glyphs
fixed it by using fonts-croscore package instead of fonts-liberation

Title:
  18.04 regression: liberation text highlight is too small in web
  browsers.

Status in fonts-liberation package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When Liberation font is selected in Firefox 59 and Chromium 65, the
  highlight does not cover the top part of the text. On Chromium it
  affects the first line of a paragraph, on Firefox it affects every
  line.

  This is a regression in 1:1.07.4-5, rolling back to the previous
  version (1:1.07.4-2) restores the correct behavior.

  The same font in gedit, libreoffice and terminal does not have this
  problem, however since both browsers are affected and other fonts
  highlight normally it suggests the fault lies with the font.
