I bet Quartz already is more widely deployed than DPS ever was. Quartz is mainstream technology sold in your typical computer store, DPS is... an oddity :) Cheers, Kuba

I've never noticed it before, but on my system it comes with the xf86 package and the man page starts with MAKEPSRES(1) MAKEPSRES(1) NAME makepsres - Build PostScript resource database file. SYNOPSIS makepsres [ options ] directory ... DESCRIPTION makepsres creates PostScript language resource database files. Resource database files can be used to specify the location of resources that are used by the font selection panel and other Adobe software. For a complete descrip- tion of the resource location facilities in the Display PostScript system, see Appendix A and Appendix B of "Dis- play PostScript Toolkit for X" in Programming the Display PostScript System with X.

The comment in lib/configure: # create a resource list file for Display Postscript I thought Jean-Marc had fixed problems with this? If the installation of the RPM is failing, then I suggest you modify lib/configure.m4 so that the offending line is guarded. For example: # create a resource list file for Display Postscript + which makepsres > /dev/null && \ (cd xfonts ; rm -f PSres.upr ; makepsres -q) || true -- Angus
