Hi,

just what I can tell you:

- Where can I even see what harfbuzz version is operational in my
> Scribus installation?

I opened the dll in a hex editor on Windows.

- Does Scribus Windows-version even use harfbuzz? Or Linux only?

It's used in the Windows version.

And back to our specific problem:

Yes, the Scribus 1.5.7 installer installs harfbuzz 2.8.0, the 1.5.8
installer will install harfbuzz 3.2.0.

The switch from harfbuzz 2 to 3 seems to introduce the different text flow.

Best regards,
Andreas
