Anyone running oracle sqldeveloper on latest java update?

After updating openjdk, sqldeveloper has a broken gui with no fonts anywhere.

Broken:

jdk7-openjdk 7.u60_2.5.0-2
jre7-openjdk 7.u60_2.5.0-2
jre7-openjdk-headless 7.u60_2.5.0-2

Working:

jdk7-openjdk 7.u55_2.4.7-1
jre7-openjdk 7.u55_2.4.7-1
jre7-openjdk-headless 7.u55_2.4.7-1

Can anyone confirm or deny this problem?

Thank you

Can confirm. No fonts within Firefox using the IcedTea plugin either, as well as other java programs I tried...

I assume it's the same problem as reported with Netbeans and the latest openjdk7 version (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=182716). Unfortunately w/o a solution.

Edit: as written in other thread: using jdk7-compat from AUR works for Netbeans. I assume it also helps with sqldeveloper.

Thank you guys.

adding

export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on' 

in /etc/profile.d/jre.sh is the solution!
