    Hi Joaquin,
               Well after the patch was applied and I installed fontconfig
    and xft2
    into /usr correctly, everything worked great! This is really great work.

    Do you want to close bugs 1030,1402 and 2598 on bugzilla thus removing
    around 500 nvotes and our number 1,3 and 10th most requested bugs to
    fix?

    Also could you fix the gnome build? Right now the gnome build won't
    compile with --enable-xft. I can work on getting gnome-print to work
    correctly.

    Finally, let me know privately if you'd like a shell account on my
    machine. (It's very fast with a direct connection to the internet.)

    Cheers

    Martin
