Did you install the "libgeda" and "symbols" portions in /usr as well before hand? The symbols package contains the font. Typically we'd suggest not installing hand-built software in /usr, as it can cause conflicts with the package management of what ever distribution you're using. If you wanted a system wide location, /usr/local works well without the risk of conflicts. > strace gschem says: > > write(9, "Component [title-B.sym] was not "..., 63) = 63 > access("../lib/sym/font/b_.sym", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or > directory) write(9, "Could not find character \'b\' def"..., 41) = 41 > access("../lib/sym/font/quest.sym", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or > directory) write(2, "Could not load question font cha"..., 66) = 66 > write(1, "Failed to load default font.\n", 29) = 29 > exit_group(-1) = ? I'm not sure if the relative paths there are normal or not, but in any case, we'd need to see whatever "chdir" command was issued above to figure out just where it is looking for these fonts. Have a look in /usr/share/gEDA/sym/font/ and see if they exist.
