Fuzzy fonts again - freetype problems

[rgzoso]

Ok, so after upgrading to freetype-2.1.5, my truetype fonts are bold and somewhat fuzzy. I like to use the Verdana font. I have tried emerging freetype both with USE="-bindist" and USE="+bindist" and there seems to be no difference.

I have look at this thread https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=874655

But it doesnt help me. I think this had to do with the truetype bytecode stuff but I am at a loss. I am gonna try downgrading freetype and see what it does. Is there anything else that might cause this problem? My other non-freetype fonts seem fine and no changes were made to the system elsewhere. I updated to the lastest stable xfree as well 4.3.0-r5.

Thanks

Any change when you put this into /etc/fonts/local.conf ?
