Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Since the transition to the new packaging for Firefox 3.6, the font rendering in Firefox has regressed. The characters are now thinner without as much smoothing or hinting. Before, the characters looked just like any other text rendered by a GTK2 application, but now they look different (worse).
