Description Rigo 2002-10-03 02:50:36 UTC
Tested qt with patch http://fontconfig.org/qt/qt3.02-09-02.diff

It's to use libXft2 instead of libXft....Tested with gcc 3.2 and it compiles
fine (compiling KDE 3.1Beta with it as of right now ;-)....


Regards, Rigo

Well, we don't have an xft2-enabled xfree yet, or do we? 
Anyway, this support's been merged into the qt-3.1 tree. I could make an ebuild 
for the latest beta, or rather for a qt-copy snapshot, if people were 
interested. By the time our freeze is over and we make an xft2-enabled unmasked 
xfree, qt-3.1.0 will be released anyway. 
Comment 3 Rigo 2002-10-05 13:25:40 UTC
fontconfig delivers all of these (Xrender, modified libXft1, libXft2 and   
fontconfig) --> See Bug #7993   
  
Using the patches provided by fontconfig.org for qt, gtk and mozilla (all  
tested, and running for a week now) gives me:  
  
- All my TTF-fonts in apps like Konsole :-D ! 
- GTK+ / Mozilla / Konqueror Completely AA (Including gtk2-widgets !) 
 
I've been reading about it, and this is the way they do it in RH 8.0...I like 
it, but it works for me if y'all consider this TOO beta just now (with the 
freeze & all) 
 
Regards & keep up the good work Dan (LOVE beta2 ;-D) !!!

Yes, we'll get on things like fontconfig/xft2 too after the freeze. Don't worry, we'll catch up to rh/mdk et al :-)
