[SOLVED]: Weird font issues with infinality-bundle on upgrade

Ive been using the infinality-bundle for some time with no problem until a recent update, and it seems like all my fonts got replaced with stranger ones.  Below is a screenshot of my font problem and a snippet from my pacman.log.

[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   If you have been using freetype2-infinality from the AUR,
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   the runtime file that came with it has been saved as
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   /etc/profile.d/infinality-settings.sh.pacsave and the new
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   one was installed in its place. You can manually delete
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   infinality-settings.sh.pacsave as it is not needed anymore.
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   If you are using [multilib], please install/upgrade
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET]   lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate, too.
[2013-10-15 18:56] [PACMAN] upgraded freetype2-infinality-ultimate (2.5.0.1-5 -> 2.5.0.1-7)
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Removing redundant symlinks ...
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Done.
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Updating font cache...
[2013-10-15 18:56] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Done.
[2013-10-15 18:56] [PACMAN] upgraded fontconfig-infinality-ultimate (2.10.95-2 -> 2.11.0-3)

The recent Infinality update requires a uninstall/install of fontconfig.  I posted the same problem here:

Thanks that was it. I had to add the infinality-font repo and reinstall.
