Dal Wiki di Debian c'è una procedura più semplice:
Io l'ho testa e adesso i caratteri sono molto più morbidi. Attuare la modifica è di una semplicità disarmante (e non mi spiego perché non venga messa di default nella distribuzione) basta creare nella propria home il file .fonts.conf e inserire i comandi che seguono, infine uscire e rientrare nella sessione grafica:Subpixel-hinting and Font-smoothing
The default fonts in Debian derived distributions like Ubuntu and Linux Mint have better looking fonts when compared to default Debian squeeze since the ubuntu-based distros have heavily patched cairo or freetype2 whereas Vanilla Debian doesn't do patching as much as they do. A lot of things about the cairo package has changed recently in wheezy and unstable which have brought almost the same font setup to Debian (But not Squeeze or old) but you have to set it up to your liking. You can create a .fonts.conf file to any user account home folder to set this up. Patching and rebuilding of Cairo packages are not needed any more. An example of .fonts.conf which you can add to your user account home folder without altering anything else:
