I cannot find any screenshot... I suspect that Gnome "overwrites" the hinting settings of ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf I know that Gnome3 sets Xft values that override fontconfig settings, but I don't know if it's the case. To check the Xft values, type "xrdb -query". Try changing the hintstyle setting from gnome-tweak-tool and watch if Cantarell font changes concordantly. It should not change, because mode="assign" has been used in the patch above. But if it changes, then that means Gnome overrides the fontconfig fonts settings of the patch (bug?). At this point you should set slight hinting in gnome-tweak-tool to see if Cantarell looks good. Version 2.5.2-1 has been released, you could also try if something changes with this version. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
