Thanks, Marc for the additional info! In view of the new details, I interprete this bug as being different from #39560, so I've removed the "duplicate" tag. Obviously, the xfonts-*-transcoded packages need some more attention. -- these fonts do not work anymore https://launchpad.net/bugs/64672 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 39560 *** It seems that you're trying to install a wrong package -- since Dapper Drake these fonts install in /usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi and /usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi and NOT in /usr/lib/X11/fonts/*. Please, provide information about the Ubuntu version you're running and the exact version of the xfonts-*dpi-transcoded packages you're trying to install! I suspect that this bug might be a duplicate of Bug #39560. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 39560 The xfonts-*-transcoded packages are missing from Breezy onwards -- these fonts do not work anymore https://launchpad.net/bugs/64672 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
