@mrvanes: You missed one aspect of my observations for the Ubuntu font. * On Ubuntu 22.04 font hinting works to start with. If I upgrade to the fonts-ubuntu 0.863-0ubuntu3 package there, the rendering happens irrespective of the font hinting value.
* On Ubuntu 23.04 font hinting is broken to start with. If I downgrade to the fonts-ubuntu 0.83-6ubuntu1 package there, the rendering honors the font hinting value. So the regression, at least for this particular font, seems to be unrelated to other packages. @Dmitriy: The above indicates that the upgrade of fontconfig is not part of the picture. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to plasma-desktop in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2017573 Title: Font hinting broken on Plasma 23.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts-ubuntu/+bug/2017573/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
