Description of problem:

After upgrading from Fedora 25 to Fedora 26, font hinting doesn't work anymore. 

All fonts look really ugly on my 32' monitor, and changing font antialias/hint
options at Gnome, Plasma or Mate doesn't produce any visible changes anymore.

With Fedora 25, I used freetype-freeword from rpmfusion, as it produced a
better result than the default freetype font hinting (although both work). On
Fedora 26, neither with or without freetype-freeword I can adjust font
hint/antialias anymore, as those options don't work anymore.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

freetype-2.7.1-9.fc26.x86_64
