Andrew and I just spent a couple of hours on the phone trying to reconcile our freetype rendering discrepancies, and after much tedious poor-man's debugging, we finally figured out what was wrong. We thought we were using the same version of freetype but were not. The fault was mine: I configured

[matplotlib-devel] buildbot font discrepancies

2009-08-30 Thread John Hunter
