Bug#1028643: fontconfig: 2.14.1-3 greatly changes font rendering

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Package: fontconfig
Version: 2.14.1-3
Severity: important



Hey.

After upgrading from 2.13.1-4.5 to 2.14.1-3 the font rendering looks
noticebly different (and IMO worse).

Attached are some example images (before/after). It's always the same
window (i.e. nothing was closed or so, but aptitude changed a bit
because of the downgrading), just fontconfig was upgraded/downgraded.

AFAICT not only the line spaces are different, but also the font
changed (look at the zeros).


Any ideas?


Cheers,
Chris.
