For the future.... having a tool that testers can turn on to take
daily screenshots at a specified time potentially with a specially
designed text-rendering dialog window on screen might be useful to
avoid the "i wish we could downgrade" scenario. The tool would keep
the dated screenshots in a directory on disk and when a user notices a
problem.. they can simply flip back through the screenshots and figure
out when the rendering changed and show you the comparison and if you
are really lucky they can show you the segment of the yum.log that
pinpoints which packages were updated in that timeframe.
