** Description changed:

  Since February till this week font rendering in Ubuntu 13.04 was
  perfectly fine (updates every few days), just like in 12.04 and 12.10.
  I've made fresh installation this week and font rendering is very bad,
  it's like something wrong with rasterization, hinting etc. Fonts are
  visible, you could say they look good at first glance, but it feels like
  there is some backlit behind them and are a little blurry and fuzzy, it
  hurts my eyes so much I can't look at my monitor for more then 10min.
  
  It happens in Unity and Gnome Shell (which I installed after I've found
  this problem, so it has nothing to do with it I guess).
  
  I tried changing Nvidia drivers from 310.32 to 313.26, no effect. In
  Noveau there is same problem.
+ 
+ Changing font options in Gnome Tweak Tool or Ubuntu Tweak doesn't help.
  
  I'm not sure what package would be responsible for this, so I file up against 
"fontconfig".
  I'd be glad to provide any additional information and I hope it gets fixed 
before release, because atm I just can't use 13.04 at all.
