Thank you for your bug report. That's the only report we got about the
issue so far it seems. It's weird that the fontconfig update would
create that problem, can you try to downgrade back to the previous
version and see if it resolves the issue for you?

Could you also add before/after screenshots to the bug showing the
issue?

Title:
  update broke fonts in firefox

Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have Ubuntu Studio 14.04. The updates window popped up and asked me
  to install updates. Which I did. This somehow broke my font
  configuration. So that I have blurry fonts in firefox. No other
  application is affected.

  I have modified nothing in /etc/fonts/conf.avail.

  If updates changes the contents of /etc/fonts/conf.d I do not see the
  purpose of having a conf.avail/conf.d - organization. The purpose must
  be to let users link or unlink files in conf.d to files in conf.avail.

  I don't expect updates to create links in /etc/fonts/conf.d that were
  previously created at installation time or upgrate time. So if I
  unlink something in /etc/fonts/conf.d I expect it to stay that way.

  Changes to the files themselves should go in /etc/fonts/conf.avail.

  Changes to which files are available by default in /etc/fonts/conf.d
  should be applied only when they are CHANGES. Not reinstall the
  default links with every update.
