Bug Description
1. pango-view --font="Ubuntu 48" --markup --text='<span fallback="false"> fl ſl • fb ſb • fk ſk • fi ſi • ff ſſ</span>'
Rendered in 46pt Regular
Sample Glyphs: ſf ſſ ſk ſi
The kerning and spacing for the latin long s "ſ" is not consistent with the remaining text.
In particular, when ‘ſ’ is followed by an ascending letter, the two collide.
The hinting is also somehow different from small f. I think that is not intended, since for big sizes the upper part of f and ſ become nearly identical. At least the latter is intended, I think.
