Incorrect bold font rendering

SUMMARY
***
Both Yakuake and Konsole render bold text incorrectly,


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use FiraCode Nerd Font 10pt as the font
2. In ZSH with fast-syntax-highlighting enabled, type using a bold error color, type in ddd and then dd to see the comparison of incorrect bold rendering

OBSERVED RESULT
Bold seems to be raised compared to standard

EXPECTED RESULT
On the same line

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This is caused by an upstream packaging issue in openSUSE: see https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1199938.

I do see that the above bug report is marked as fixed, so it might have regressed recently. Either way, I'd recommend following up with the openSUSE Folks about it.

The bold part of that screenshot looks fine to me, just the @ looks broken.

That was supposedly fixed with https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1217542 though.
