I'm getting the same error on edgy, after installing and uninstalling various other font packages. I'm guessing this is why a lot of the fonts that I supposedly have installed aren't showing up in gtkfontsel or xlsfonts -- for instance, none of the bitstream vera fonts, and none of the msttcorefonts.
If my list of packages matters, here's what I did: aptitude install msttcorefonts sun-java5-fonts xfonts-terminus xfonts- terminus-oblique aptitude remove ttf-bengali-fonts ttf-devanagari-fonts ttf-gujarati- fonts ttf-indic-fonts ttf-kannada-fonts ttf-malayalam-fonts ttf-oriya- fonts ttf-punjabi-fonts ttf-tamil-fonts ttf-telugu-fonts But that left me with super ugly fonts almost everywhere, which apparently are due to gsfonts-x11. And the lucida fonts from the sun package weren't usable (at least, emacs crashes if I try to start it using lucidatypewriter), so I removed those two packages: aptitude remove sun-java5-fonts gsfonts-x11 That got rid of the ugly fonts, but I still don't have the bitstream vera or msttcore fonts. -- [edgy] While dist-upgrading , "Use of uninitialized value in print at /var/lib/defoma/scripts/gs.defoma line 108." https://launchpad.net/bugs/52236 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
