At least cyrillic characters in Qt4 applications looks ugly because font substitution hardcoded in Qt GUI library (i.e. "Sans Serif" -> "Helvetica"). And this can't be changed by qtconfig or manually editing .config/Trolltech.conf. I found a patch that fixes this problem: https://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/qt4/F-8/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.4-no-hardcoded-font-aliases.patch?view=markup (tested with x11-libs/qt-gui-4.4.2).
Created attachment 176254 [details] Difference between Qt3 and Qt4 font rendering This is parts from screenshots of qtconfig 3 and 4 with identical font settings (family: Sans Serif, style: Normal, point size: 9).
Thanks for the patch. I ll take a look and report back

This patch is already included in ebuild x11-libs/qt-gui-4.5.0_rc1-r1, so I think that the bug can be closed.
