No, actually it went perfect, but, my font is all wacked out on some sites, but nothing to be worried about. Also noticed that synaptic just now froze after doing some updates/install.

Also libgtk2-jni & libgtk2-java won't install each other.

Also I get this error when the installation(s) are done:

E: fontconfig: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
E: libfontconfig1: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

Holding off upgrading till this one gets fixed :P

Might be waiting awhile, not sure when they'll release it again...hopefully soon because it is VERY annoying ](*,)

As posted all over this forum, don't upgrade to breezy if you want a stable desktop (one without the random broken app). Right now there is a huge merger of debian packages into Ubuntu.

It does change the font settings so the autohinter is no longer switched on, as /etc/fonts/local.conf is replaced with /etc/fonts/conf.d/

a quick

sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig

will let you set it up how you want.
