Title:
  Blurry Font Bug from GTK+ 3.10.8 in Trusty 14.04

Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Following a fresh install of Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 I had the surprise to
  see blurry fonts showing up in gEdit (stock install), when the
  document viewed is longer than a displayed vertical or horizontal
  page. I later found it was reported as a bug in Launchpad as "blurry
  font as document is longer than one page and scroll bars appear", see:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1309785

  This GTK+ 3.10.8 bug was reported as corrected in September 2014 in in
  GTK+ 3.13.7 . However someone reported a work-around which consisted
  of adding an "env" parameter to the Exec command line in the
  gedit.desktop file.

  # Exec=gedit %U
  Exec=env GTK_DEBUG=no-pixel-cache gedit %U

  It looks like the displayed information on a selected package in
  Synaptic shows the same behavior i.e. Selecting package "0ad" will
  show a perfect font rendering in the package info field. However
  selecting package "0ad-data" which description is slightly longer and
  will not fit in the panel window, will display then a blurred font.

  I tried the same "env GTK_DEBUG=no-pixel-cache" to synaptic cmd. line
  however this is not working.

  Considering that Trusty 14.04 is a LTS release, does anyone knows
  which env parameter would fix this bug ?
