Anyone run dist-upgrade yesterday in Etch and notice the fonts in GTK/Gnome Apps are a bit different (worse)? The application's fonts, eg, webpages in firefox are fine but the application itself, menus, etc, look worse than they did prior to the upgrade.

They appear thicker and vertically longer "stretched" out - has anyone seen this behaviour?


After browsing some different websites and restarting some xchat's, it appears all the fonts in GTK/Gnome apps are for the worst, I can restore my system from a previous backup and stop upgrading but was wondering if someone knew of a fix to revert the fonts back to normal?



Problem found, my $HOME/.fonts.conf was modified by the upgradae, I restored my old one from backup and my fonts are back to normal.

Why does this seem to happen upon every new KDE update?
