The Xft code will probably be entirely rewritten after the 22.1 release, and I don't merge feature branches in emacs-snapshot (otherwise I'd have to do it for multi-tty, tiling, etc). > It's not that stable by now, but it could be a good idea (after all > emacs was one of the few 'common' program that had no gtk2 ui and that > was not xft-rendered yet..). There's no bold, it changes the default font selection, it crashes... If people want the feature that badly, they can just compile their own version from CVS, or use third-party packages; I'm not willing to deal with it. There's a significant gap between "this branch works for me" and "this branch is suitable for the 100+ users of emacs-snapshot in Debian and Ubuntu". And having different versions of emacs-snapshot in unstable and experimental isn't an option.
