    Summary: Recommended update for xorg-x11-libs

    Details: This update for xorg-x11-libs fixes the following issues: - The original fix for CVE-2015-1804 prevented DWIDTH to be negative. However, the spec states that 'DWIDTH [...] is a vector indicating the position of the next glyph's origin relative to the origin of this glyph'.
