(I'm going through old bug reports that have unfortunately gotten no
responses yet.)
I haven't tested myself (because I don't really know what I'd look for
to reproduce this bug), but I had a look at the code, and there seems to
be code in there to heed the "hintnone" style:
else if (strcmp (name, "Xft/HintStyle") == 0)
{
settings->seen |= SEEN_HINTSTYLE;
if (strcmp (sval, "hintnone") == 0)
settings->hintstyle = FC_HINT_NONE;
else if (strcmp (sval, "hintslight") == 0)
settings->hintstyle = FC_HINT_SLIGHT;
This code was added in 2009, though, which I think was before 24.2 was
released... but there's been other changes in this area over the years
since this was reported.
Are you still seeing this problem on a modern Emacs, and if so, do you
have a recipe to reproduce (i.e., what should be we seeing if Emacs does
this wrong)?
