Re: libXFt and konqueror

Thanks Rob, I don't need to worry about it now though as it is now 
fixed. The problem was due to something in the libxft package and after 
getting a new version of the package of Branden everything worked fine. 
I think it will be uploaded to unstable soon.

Cheers

John
