This is a regression in Pygame probably due to a change in libSDL_ttf/freetype. I think pydance is the only program in Debian that renders non-AA text, and so the only program that was affected. The upcoming Pygame 1.8 release will fix it. If Pygame 1.8 (or SVN) doesn't make it into Debian before etch, I'm okay with removing pydance from the release. -- Joe Wreschnig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
