Package: gitk
Version: 1:1.5.4.2-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

the latest update of gitk switched to tk8.5, which now uses antialiased
fonts (via fontconfig and freetype).
The fonts used by gitk are Helvetica and Courier, which look rather bad
on screen with antialiasing.
It would be best if gitk used Sans (which usually is mapped to Bitstream
Vera Sans) for the interface and Monospace (usually Bitstream Vera Mono)
for the diff.

After manually choosing those fonts in the gitk settings dialog, the app
fonts look great.

If you think this is a bug in tk8.5, please reassign appropriately.

Cheers,
Michael
