Yup, get the libXft 2.1.7 library and replace that shared object library as
below and it will work, it is only a hack but it works..

I fixed this by using the lib from a box with libXft2 2.1.7 instead of
2.1.8.2-3.

# mv libXft.so.2.1.2 libXft.so.2.1.2-2.1.8.2-3
# scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/lib/libXft.so.2.1.2 .

Then everything worked again.

Note: I did grab the 2.1.7 deb but when I did the apt-get install / upgrade,
it wiped it out, very nasty!  The worst part is people probably will not see
this until they reboot!

# startkde
kdeinit: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libXft.so.2: undefined symbol:
FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden

Using mirrors.kernel.org as my repo, any way to fix this issue?

# nm -D  libXft.so.2 |grep Glyph
         U FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden



Could you make that lib available somewhere or perhaps mail it to me, then I can make it available?
