As Hamish mentioned in trac, qgis is now at 1.3 and therefore failed to
install on alpha5. Testing the install myself, something odd came up and
I'm wondering if anyone can repeat. After install of qgis the fonts are
microscopic for some reason. I noticed that a whole bunch of qt stuff
got pulled along as dependencies and have no clue what give although I'm
sure it's qt related.

Can anyone confirm that this is a bug and not just a fluke in my VM.

Thanks,
Alex
