The title of Konsole definitely doesn't look right, but I'm not sure I would blame FreeType for that. It could be some KDE or Qt problem.
On my installation, Ubuntu Tweak Tool doesn't allow me to set Window Font to "Ubuntu Bold 9". It simply switches to "Ubuntu Medium 9" and makes window titles look regular, not bold. However, when I increase the font size, it does make the title appear bold and it looks perfectly fine to me (attaching the screenshot). I also updated to Michael's PPA and tried installing Konsole - the fonts still look OK. ** Attachment added: "Bold titles" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freetype/+bug/1722508/+attachment/4970305/+files/comparison-bold.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1722508 Title: Font hinting appears broken on 17.10 beta To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freetype/+bug/1722508/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
