[SOLVED] Problems after the latest libfreetype6 update

Postby zugunder » Apr 13th, '12, 22:47

Hi,
I've just updated libfreetype6 and lib64freetype6 and the fonts are gone blurry. Only GTK applications are affected as far as I can see (FF 10 and Control Center for example). I am not able to fix anything using standard KDE System Settings tools. Fonts AA is enabled, forced 96DPI, subpixel rendering rgb (changing doesn't help), slight hinting (changing doesn't help).
I'll try to roll back to the previous version.

OK, now, with 2.4.4-5.4 from the tainted everything is back to normal. The updates were not from the tainted repository, did not notice that...
