Recently updated my Factory running workstation (x86_64, Xfce).
Monospace font interval is increased badly.
I'm sure, I use DejaVu Sans Mono as a monospace font. I choose 'monospace 9' in programs settings. There is a screenshot: http://susepaste.org/view/simple/38919191
Changing to 'DejaVu Sans Mono 9': http://susepaste.org/view/simple/70371539 It looks like it was before.
% fc-match Monospace Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/56-user.conf", line 14: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated. please move it to /home/kent/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf manually Monospace: "Monospace" "Regular"
The problem is some ghostscript* package installs font files literally named Monospace*. Make them go away and the excessive line spacing for generic monospace goes away.
