Bug#522871: libqtcore4: qt seems to incorrectly use ~/.fonts.conf

[Miles Bader <miles@gnu.org>]

Package: libqtcore4
Version: 4.5.0-2
Severity: normal


I have a ~/.fonts.conf file, in which I turn off anti-aliasing for a
specific set of fonts (and for those fonts, only within a specific size
range).

In most fontconfig/freetype apps (e.g. iceweasel/firefox, gtk+ aps,
etc), this works as intended -- the selected fonts are not anti-aliased,
but all other fonts are anti-aliased.

However, in qt apps (e.g., "qtconfig"), _all_ fonts lack anti-aliasing,
and look quite awful as a result.

If I remove my ~/.fonts.conf file, fonts are properly anti-aliased in qt
apps as well, so it clearly seem to be some problem with that.

Thanks,

-Miles
