clear-type on centos5

I have pre-built RPMs for CentOS 5, so for this OS just attach to the vitki.net repository and install RPMs:

rpm -i vitki-net-release-5-3.el5.noarch.rpm
yum install freetype cairo libXft
yum install gedit gedit-plugins

Otherwise, you have to compile yourself.

Get the patches from http://quanli.googlepages.com/davidt...esfordebiansid (or google for "david turner subpixel"):

• freetype-2.2.1-subpixel-disable-quantization.diff
• libcairo-1.2.4-lcd-cleartype-like.diff
• libXft-2.1.8.2-lcd-cleartype-like.diff

Get the SRPMS http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/SRPMS/
cairo-1.2.4-2.el5.src.rpm
freetype-2.2.1-19.el5.src.rpm
libXft-2.1.10-1.1.src.rpm

rpm -i *.src.rpm
