Package: xfonts-utils Version: 1:7.7~1 Files: /usr/sbin/update-fonts-dir Hi,
Trying to address <http://bugs.debian.org/563250> (xvile appearance wrong due to missing font), I installed xfonts-100dpi. Alas: $ xmessage -fn lucidasans-10 It was the best of times Warning: Cannot convert string "lucidasans-10" to type FontStruct $ xlsfonts | grep lucida $ Restarting X makes the font show up. xfonts-100dpi.postinst simply runs update-fonts-dir: $ cat $(dpkg-query --control-path xfonts-100dpi postinst) #!/bin/sh set -e # Automatically added by dh_installxfonts if which update-fonts-dir >/dev/null 2>&1; then update-fonts-dir --x11r7-layout 100dpi;update-fonts-alias --include /etc/X11/fonts/100dpi/xfonts-100dpi.alias 100dpi fi # End automatically added section Should update-fonts-dir be informing X somehow to reread the fonts dir? Alternatively, if some other package is responsible for making that happen, please feel free to reassign this bug. Thanks, Jonathan $ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section "Device" Identifier "geforce" # Driver "nouveau" Driver "fbdev" # Driver "vesa" EndSection $ dpkg-query -W xfonts-100dpi xfonts-100dpi 1:1.0.3 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.3.0-trunk-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xfonts-100dpi depends on: ii xfonts-utils 1:7.7~1 Versions of packages xfonts-utils depends on: ii libc6 2.13-32 ii libfontenc1 1:1.1.1-1 ii libfreetype6 2.4.9-1 ii libxfont1 1:1.4.5-2 ii x11-common 1:7.6+13 ii xfonts-encodings 1:1.0.4-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-1 xfonts-100dpi recommends no packages. xfonts-utils recommends no packages.
