Looking on here: https://github.com/bohoomil/fontconfig-ultimate/issues/171 Apparently there is no more "official" support for freetype >=2.7 since the patches had be merged on freetype. I removed it and re-adjusted (eselect) fontconfig, and had from (IMO) equally to better results depending on configurations choices. So, eventually, indeed Infinality patches may be considered deprecated for freetype >=2.7.

We have newer fontconfig for a long time and, indeed, I stopped using infinality as I get nice fonts with default set... Is infinality still needed for any use case?
