Description
Created attachment 322366 Kerning problem example
I've just installed a fresh Fedora 23 system and was testing out Empathy. Something was looking weird about the conversation text, and I eventually realized that the ongoing chat text widget doesn't seem to be doing font kerning correctly, but the message entry widget on the same window is doing it correctly.
I took a screenshot of a sentence I sent to a friend and the same text again in the message entry area (attached). You can see weird kerning in the top sentence all over the place, especially in the word "something".
My Empathy package is empathy-3.12.11-3.fc23.x86_64.
