Hi,
After updating Kubuntu from 11.04 to 11.10 I started to encounter spurious system wide fonts change. It happens on a fresh 11.10 installation as well. It seems to occur after changing system settings (not font related). I fix it by rm .fonts.conf, but it's quite annoying and it took me quite a while to figure it out.
This is how the config looks like after being created at random moment:
<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba">
<const>none</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="hinting">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle">
<const>hintmedium</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
I'd consider it as a bug.
