this is what confused me..

Daniel links in

to
https://sites.google.com/site/quanli/davidturner%27slcdcleartype-likepatchesandpackagesfordebiansid

which lists a bunch of patches and stuff, and, as far as i could see,
ubuntu uses patched packages of some of the packages mentioned on above
site.

fine; so let's just make the backports then and be done with it :)

in fact, i've got the cairo already in my own backports (because of the
mozilla backports) at archive.p-l.o; i'll do xft at latest after debconf
too. unrelated to that, someone might want to engage with
debian-backports to make them available there too.

just to make sure that i've got it completely, the only thing to
configure is that .fonts.conf thing and it's all set?
