FWIW, and unsurprisingly, the claws-mail mailing list doesn't think there's a bug in that application. I've had to change fonts to Droid Sans 11 for folders and message lists, and Ubuntu Mono 13 for the message window. It's not what I want, but it's tolerable.
I have noticed other geometry changes with gnome terminal and Emacs, and have had to adjust some settings, but so far I haven't had to actually change the font of either of them. I understand the rationale for backing this patch out, but it does seem to have some negative side- effects for me. My understanding is that the patch caused problems for other people though. I suspect we'll have to wait (perhaps in vain) for a font expert to dig into the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547196 Title: Removal of revert_scalable_fonts_metric.patch causes ugliness in Claws-Mail To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freetype/+bug/1547196/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
