Hi, i agree it is a bug that needs to be fixed upstream, however you don't need
to "re"compile anything but freetype to apply that workaround, probably there
is a precompiled infinality package for kubuntu too.

The key is the infinality patched freetype that fools qt into thinking it is
using an hintfull method, but produced an hintslight rendering instead.
New QT rendering methods seems just to kick in when hintslight is used, so the
trick works.
