I believe that Ubuntu has patched some libs to tweak the font rendering.

In the Arch Linux i've found packages with patches from Ubuntu:Â

freetype2-ubuntu fontconfig-ubuntu libxft-ubuntu cairo-ubuntu

There is a way to convert the equivalent ubuntu packages to fedora or compile the fedora libs with the ubuntu patches and generates a rpm package?

I am using Gnome (2) though, but it seems the procedure is almost
identical. Thanks!
