I just tried upgrading the the newest libfreetype6 again, and now I
notice that GNU Emacs isn't the only program where lines get crammed
together by the upgrade: Text in other programs, such as Pidgin, also
gets changed display - line spacing is decreased a lot.

I wonder if this is due to some configuration in my system, because I
doubt that people wouldn't complain about that look in a newly installed
system.

Setting this works fine for me - but that doesn't solve the problem for
all the other programs where the newer libfreetype6 decreases the
default line spacing making text hard to read.

I have looked in /etc/fonts/* but I think I need someone to take a swing
at me with a clue bat...
