We need to work with Sanskrit and Pali languages; the fonts-noto-core package provides Devanagari, Thai and Brahmi script fonts (it is only the font that provides Brahmi script). Here is a small issue with Noto Thai fonts version on Debian: A nikahit symbol (circle symbol above) is rendered, but it overlaps with vowels above. A picture (with an example word กิํ): https://postimg.cc/5QyJQdTr This issue has already been fixed in a newer version of these fonts (for example, in the Noto Sans Thai Looped font): github.com/notofonts/thai/releases/tag/NotoSansThaiLooped-v2.000 Best regards, Kobboon Kerdpasop
Hi Kobboon, Quoting Kobboon Kerdpasop (2025-03-31 02:22:23) Thank you for reporting this issue. As already mentioned at our mailinglist, it is unfortunately notlikely that I manage to find the time to issue an update of fonts-noto in time to get included with the upcoming Debian release, due to upstream restructuring of its codebase (which is a good thing: Eases a much wanted wish from Debian to be able to build the fonts from source - it just requires some work to restructure our build routines). Regardless, I appreciate your filing the bugreport, so we are aware of the issue and can track its progress. Kind regards, - Jonas
