Re: Re: PEAR clases don't work with PHP 5.3

The current standing "problem" is that it turned out that font-sizes are differnent for e.g. SVG and GD2. Digging into that it turned out that several other problems exist with SVG-output (or GD2, depends on the point of view). Since I already started to try to fix those things in trunk, but without breaking others, imho that needs to be fixed first. If Martin might be able to help here, that would be awesome.
