debian Sid, x11

maximum advance via freetype2 is too wide for some fonts.

Same issue as #902 and #990 and I'm still unable to solve this.
I've tried the workaround proposed but the patch is unapplicable. I've reproduced the same modifications and applied this patch. Still nothing.

Narrow fonts like Iosevka or Pragmata Pro have this issue:

I'm currently just setting offset x to -8.0 and it looks pretty good, almost identical to my other terminal emulator.

Offsetting by -8.0 however, causes a strange behaviour on the dimensions column value (I have to set 1000 to see ~80 colums)

Still, what's the status of this?
