Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: fontconfig-config

Version: 2.5.0-2ubuntu3

I am using debconf-get-selections(1) + debconf-set-selections(1) to
preseed configuration settings on a newly-installed Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1
system (starting with ubuntu-standard, preseeding, and then installing a
desktop metapackage). One of these addresses Fontconfig's subpixel-
rendering feature; I want to completely disable it:

    fontconfig-config  fontconfig/subpixel_rendering  select  Never

When fontconfig is installed, however, the default value of "Automatic"
is made effective, ignoring the preseeded value. I have to manually
reconfigure the package and select "Never" in order to make the desired
setting effective.

The package should be checking for extant debconf settings upon
installation, and honoring them if they are found.
