Package: libqt4-core Version: 4.3.2-1 Severity: important As shown on this picture: http://tomi.nomi.cz/tmp2/qt4-fucked-hinting.png (qt3 on the left side, qt4 on the right), qt4 does not respect my hinting settings and just subpixel-antialiases the fonts. This looks awful and is very annoying to read.
All gtk2 and qt3 applications have no problems hinting the fonts properly. My settings look like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ xrdb -query | grep Xft Xft.dpi: 96 Xft.hinting: true Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium Xft.rgba: rgb I have no hinting-related settings in /etc/fonts/local.conf nor in /etc/fonts/conf.d/*, but adding them makes no difference for qt4. (I tried for example enabling autohinting, gtk fonts looked different, qt4 was still the same.) The fonts I use are ttf-dejavu-2.19-1. I did not recompile freetype and enable/disable/do-whatever-with anything regarding hinting. Even though I probably understand that most people don't care about their fonts, neither does Trolltech, this issue is really critical for me, I simply can't look at that. (To be really sure that we are talking about hinting, I tried to disable it in local.conf and tried some gtk2 application. The result was similar -- ugly subpixel-antialiased fonts. They were a lot uglier than those rendered by qt4. Even though that's nice, hinted fonts are much better.) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-lis (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=cs_CZ, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ (charmap=ISO-8859-2) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libqt4-core depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.1.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libgcc1 1:4.2.2-3 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.1-5 The GLib library of C routines ii libqt4-core 4.3.2-1 Qt 4 core non-GUI functionality ru ii libstdc++6 4.2.2-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-6 compression library - runtime libqt4-core recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
