Hi, On 10/stable amd64, the recent fontconfig update makes the fonts used in thunderbird, firefox, (u)xterm, and emacs quite a bit uglier. The font strokes seem to be thicker and fuzzier. Emacs I fixed by reinstalling bitstream-vera, but (u)xterm use that and they're still broken. I ran fc-cache -f, but no change. I turned off antialiasing via /usr/local/etc/fonts/local.conf and that made the strokes nice and thin but overall even uglier. Any ideas/pointers on how to fix this? Thanks, Russell
