Bug Description
ubuntu lucid
installing daily ppa version, fonts in /usr/share/
FreeSans.ttf -> ../../.
FreeSerif.ttf -> ../../.
while the bzr repository fonts are real files.
I suspect this thing is the cause of the differences shown in attached screenshot.

The problem is, that the fonts we bundle in bzr are quite outdated. Updating the font files would be a good idea, but is currently not possible, as the newer versions of FreeSans and FreeSerif are licensed under GPLv3 while Widelands is GPLv2 ... often discussed issue. Perhaps time to talk about it again...
