This is on amd64, but I doubt that that's relevant. I have an extensive collection of fonts for PostScript, so /usr/share/groff_font/devps is a symbolic link to a /fonts directory. It has been so since NetBSD-1.x and before that on BSD/OS and before that into the mists of time.
I upgraded to NetBSD-9.2 several days ago, and suddenly my standard document formats come out all wrong. The glyphs for the variously-acquired (e.g. bought from Linotype) fonts do not seem to be available, and the font metrics are wrong for the glyphs that do appear. I have a practical solution for the moment: if I mount_nfs a backup copy of the same fonts directory on a remote server and point groff_font/devps at that instead, everything goes back to normal. Anyone have any insight into why migrating from 7.0 to 9.2 might cause such a problem? -- Steve Blinkhorn <[email protected]>
