Font problem after update


I have just upgraded to FC4 a few days ago and I was updating a few packages from nrpms.net (updating to 2.12 of gnome plus firefox, gaim, thunderbird etc.) through apt (using synaptic). Synaptic crashed for some reason during the installation of the packages and I ended up with having a bunch packages double, libgnome etc. I corrected that by uninstalling all the old ones but suddenly I noticed that the fonts in firefox, thunderbird, gaim, synaptic etc. had become fuzzy and thin compared to the normal font I was seeing in the toolbar and desktop, same goes for the up2date application. I have no idea what caused this and how to revert back to right font.

Kind Regards

André Fettouhi
