Hmm, it seems to have changed my default system font (within GNOME at least) to something with ugly serifs. I've reset that in terminal and icedove, but can't immediately see how to set it right (should the ugly critter turn up elsewhere - I recognize it is the same one something else defaults to (possibly Macs?)). Also tweaked my anti-aliasing to greyscale (perhaps I had tweaked this stuff before), but that may be a personal choice thing or an LCD thing. Seems also to have sorted a strange fuzziness issue with the right hand side of the screen which I hadn't noticed till I read your post and compared their before and after pictures and noted that something odd happened on the right hand side of my screen. Does seem to have sorted the kerning issue in Debian, but it all looks fairly different due to the changes of font. Suppose the question to ask is why is it still a patch?
