Package: bluetile Version: 0.5.1-2 Severity: important Tags: patch It looks like bluetile mandates a specific fontset, which is not installed by default on Debian desktops. In particular it is looking for: ./src/XMonad/Util/Font.hs:88: fallBack d = const $ createFontSet d "-misc-fixed-*-*-*-*-10-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
If it's not available, bluetile will start but in a weird and screwed-up mode, spitting a lot of warning on console: user error (createFontSet) user error (createFontSet) user error (createFontSet) To be usable, I had to manually install the xfonts-base package on my system. You may want to add a proper Depends: on it. This problem may also be gone in newer 0.5.3, which claims to support configurable fontset.
