DescriptionForwarded from:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-font-family/+bug/649756

When the Ubuntu Font Family (UFF) is used in scribus with accented latin letters, kerning is not applied. UFF includes both a basic (limited by size) kern table, but the full kerning data is in the .ttf GPOS table. This shows with accented versions of the capital "T", "V" and "P" together with "o", "e" and "a" have different distances between letters with and without diacritics.
