There is a report about it in kotlinlang Slack: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C01D6HTPATV/p1706005056105739

Thanks for the report!

The release notes documentation has been edited to clarify this change in behavior for line height.

To support non-standard text sizes, we encourage users to follow the Material design system and use a different type scale rather than changing the font size directly. Alternatively, users can overwrite the line height like so: style = LocalTextStyle.current.copy(lineHeight = TextUnit.Unspecified), or create a custom Typography entirely.

In my case, I have multiple font sizes in the same Text (using SpanStyle in AnnotatedString). There are legitimate reasons for this. For example, when combining Chinese and English (phonetic) together (for language-learning purposes).

It's a non-atomic group, so the contained artifacts are versioned (mostly) separately. We version and release the core artifact with core-ktx and core-testing.

Whats the process for rolling out changes to androidx.core:core?

Make the changes, then either request a release on go/jetpad or let me know when you want a release. Generally speaking, core releases whenever contributors (or dependent libraries) need it released. If you need this to go to stable soon, you can file a bug against the core component along the lines of "Release core 1.x.0 to stable" and I'll churn through the process of beta/rc/stable.

We have some experimental APIs that could do with using this interface. As they're experimental, to not block the library from otherwise progressing through the release train, I assume we need these changes to be in stable?

Filed b/381012242 for releasing to stable.
