RE: [Cooker] OpenOffice.org killed by recent freetype/fontconfig/xft upgrade

[Eric Piel]

On two machines now, the upgrade of font-related packages with
freetype2
2.1.2 to 2.1.3 seems to have broken the user interface fonts in
OpenOffice.org.

Fonts in documents still work, but there's not *that* much that can
be
done ...

Nice to see I'm not the only one ;-)
I think this problem is the same than the one disscussed in [Cooker]
More font weirdness. It seems it touches gtk2, qt3 and all programs
using Xft... I suppose the bug is in the newest libXft2 or freetype2.
Hopefully a workaround will be found quickly because now is a bit
annoying using a computer with half of the text invisible :-)

I tried to post this also this morning but my message hasn't made it yet. Same 
problems here. No text on the tabs in spreadsheet either.
