--- Begin Message ---Package: libfreetype6 Version: 2.1.10-2 Severity: normal The quality of the subpixel antialising decreased significantly after the latest upgrade of libfreetype6. Please see the difference before [1] and after [2]. The website is rendered differently and also the fonts in the menu bar look different, imo significantly worse. For the record, I have a TFT display and subpixel aliasing (RGB) enabled. The changelog mentions that you have applied several patches from Ubuntu. I have a recent Dapper installation but don't have this decrease in font appereance there. So I'm not sure what actually causes this quality loss. Please revert the changes done in 2.1.10-2.

Thanks to Michael Biebl for reporting the bug. I was able to reproduce the bug setting gnome-font-properties to: 96 dpi, sub-pixel anti-aliasing, full hinting, with Bitstream Vera Sans Roman 11 as desktop font. (Closes: Bug#359104) * Added more fixes to debian/patches/freetype-2.1.10-cvsfixes.patch: * 2006-03-27 David Turner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * src/sfnt/ttkern.c (tt_face_get_kerning): Fix a serious bug that causes some programs to go into an infinite loop when dealing with fonts that don't have a properly sorted kerning sub-table. * 2006-03-21 Zhe Su <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * src/base/ftoutln.c (FT_Outline_Get_Orientation): Improve algorithm. This is to prevent certain emboldened and hinted glyphs from becoming "weird". See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=158573 for details. * Oops, I inadvertently set the shlibs dependency to (>= 2.1.10-1) in 2.1.10-2. Reverted to (>= 2.1.5-1).
