Created attachment 127940 [details] 5.3 vs 5.1 Sometime in the 5.2 lifecycle arabic fonts have broken on Linux. This doesnt happen on Windows. Firstly they dont render correctly and black bars appear in various places and secondly they are being placed outside of the selected region, which has the beginning of the first word appear outside of the table border.

That is seriously broken, those bars looks like those bars are randomly inserted kashidas. Also mark positions are completely off. However, I can’t reproduce this with 5.2, but I can reproduce it on master. But it seems to be fixed with bug 89870, but I think we still need to bibisect this.
This got broken in two steps, first the black bars appeared and the text got displaced, then later the positions of symbols on top changed. Here is the first one. Need to update bibisect repo for the other. Khaled, please take a look. https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=6323e6628668849438e6e19ba7ad2c6598263261 "Fix not-so-newly introduced perf regression in vcl Reverts f688acfdae00ebdd891737e533d54368810185e1 and the cluster boundaries part of 1da9b4c24e806ad2447b4a656e2a7192755bb6a8, checking the user of the GlyphItem::IS_IN_CLUSTER flag again, I think the old code provides what they expect.

Right, I’m reverting all of these now since work on bug 89870 fixes them in a cleaner way.
