In DejaVu Sans Mono the Cyrillic hard sign U+044A, letter U+044B and their capital counterpars look blurred in small sizes on my desktop (other letters look clear). I'm using freetype 2.2.1, KDE is configured to use antialiasing + full hinting.

Fixed in DejaVu Sans Mono in SVN. I guess it needs to be hinted in other fonts too :-) Are there more Cyrillic characters you're seeing blurred on a regular basis?
Created attachment 6306 [details] DejaVu Cyrillic Alphabet Screenshot I looked at other DejaVu fonts (version 2.8, at 12pt). Apparently you notice these: DejaVu Sans Mono. Hard sign U+044A and letter U+044B look blurred, as was mentioned. Letter Eh U+044D looks a little bit dirty. This is true for both small and capital letters. Other letters are nice. DejaVu Sans. Only small letter Eh U+044D looks blurred (or you may say, bolder then it should be). Others are ok. DejaVu Sans Serif. Hard sing U+044A, letter U+044B and Eh U+044D look blurred, and this is only for small letters, capital letters look ok.
I managed to install the SVN version, finally :) Hard sign and letter U+044B look good now in all the mentioned fonts. So this bug I'm closing. Letter Eh U+044D doesn't look really good in DejaVu Sans Mono and DejaVu Sans, but for that I'll open a new bug.
