Description Telsa Gwynne 2002-07-16 19:01:23 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020605

Description of problem:
installing milan beta3 came across freetype (apparently to be installed)
and freetype-demos (apparently unselected). Wondered what the demo was.

The info in the installer (rpm -qi?) is identical for both of them.
Except (weirdly) in the GUI install, there seems to be an extra
space: the lines are wrapped differently in the same sized space.

freetype-demos could do with something that helps me decide whether
or not to install it.

current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable.
