I was curious and built pango from git, installed it, rebuilt geany.. appears to be linked properly, but I still get the slowdown
``` $ ldd `which geany` linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff31b61000) libgeany.so.0 => /home/andy/.local/lib/libgeany.so.0 (0x00007fcae186a000) libgtk-3.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-3.so.0 (0x00007fcae1179000) libgdk-3.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdk-3.so.0 (0x00007fcae107d000) libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 => /home/andy/.local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 (0x00007fcae106c000) libpango-1.0.so.0 => /home/andy/.local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpango-1.0.so.0 (0x00007fcae101d000) ```
