even when I install the xfonts-75dpi and xfonts-100dpi I do not get these fonts.
$ sudo apt install xfonts-75dpi xfonts-100dpi $ xlsfonts | grep helv | wc 0 0 0 On another note, in my case xscreensaver seems to be requesting the "dina"-fonts. I get the error messages like: xscreensaver: unloadable, unparsable font: "-*-dina-bold-...." any help appreciated to get rid of this annoying error message. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1733036 Title: xscreensaver package should require xfonts-100dpi or xfonts-75dpi to be installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/1733036/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
