Public bug reported:
Summary:
In Gnome 2.26.0 (as found in Jaunty Beta) GNOME Terminal features very
large tracking (letter-spacing) compared to its predecessor. This is bad
from an æsthetic point of view, not configurable, wasteful of screen
real-estate space. No other changes in pango or fontconfig have been
experienced between Intrepid and Jaunty. The issue is limited to GNOME
Terminal, and is exhibited irrespectively of the monospaced font used.
Expected Results:
Either tighter or configurable default tracking in GNOME Terminal.
Actual Results:
Very large, not configurable tracking in GNOME Terminal, different to
previous versions.

If the maintainers feel that this is an upstream bug, please let me know and
I'll open a bug report on the GNOME bugzilla --- or they could do so themselves.
