1) Hopefully you won't need gdkxft soon enough. 2) If you really need it, (and I wanted it), just download the package, extract it with dpkg-deb into a temporary directory, and put the appropriate library file in /usr/local/lib/. Then manage your LD_PRELOAD yourself. I created a /usr/local/bin/aalaunch as follows: -------------------------------- #!/bin/sh export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libgdkxft.so FILTER="sed s/\/usr\/local\/bin\//\/usr\/bin\//" #echo $FILTER TARGET=`echo $0 | $FILTER` #echo $TARGET; exec $TARGET $* -------------------------------- Then create symlinks for applications in /usr/bin. Eg: $ ln -s /usr/local/bin/aalaunch /usr/local/bin/mozilla Will create the /usr/local/bin/mozilla executable that launches /usr/bin/mozilla with the libgtkxft environment... For some reason tat least some of this has seemed to stop working recently, but that could just be problems on my end.
