Package: gnome-panel Version: 2.30.0-1 Severity: minor Tags: squeeze Hello,
Before may 2010, gnome provided an applet to switch keyboard layouts. That applet has been replaced by a widget in the notification area (automatically enabled when multiple layouts are configured by the user). However, the font hinting for the new widget is much worse than the former applet hinting. On the old applet, the font quality was similar to the clock applet characters (see attached screenshot). I also noticed that this issue impact depends on the font size (11 points, on the screenshot) Regards, A.
