[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The problem I originally reported was not concerned with typing text, but
text rendered in read-only buffers (ie. dired and minibuffer).

I have attached the report-emacs-bug too. Please note that I compiled emacs
27 myself on debian buster.

Also here's the bad news. Just now I realized that bug#41005 is not solved
yet. At certain combinations of characters, the ligatures are still
disjointed. Also I tried to change the font family, but that  didn't help
either. This doesn't happen when I compiled emacs using --without-harfbuzz
option. I don't know if it helps but I can try to find if there's a pattern
to the combinations of characters I mentioned.
