** Description changed:
The /usr/share/defoma/scripts/x-ttcidfont-conf.defoma script fails to
create a fonts.dir file, which means that applications using the old X
font subsystem (like emacs) don't see the truetype fonts installed on
the system.
The invocation of mkfontdir is:
system('/usr/bin/mkfontdir',
'-e', '/usr/share/X11/fonts/encodings',
'-e', '/usr/share/X11/fonts/encodings/large',
"$PkgDir/dirs/$category");
As /usr/share/X11/fonts/encodings does not exist, mkfontdir errors out
without creating the fonts.dir file. The encodings information seems to
- be at /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings now.
+ be at /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings or
+ /usr/share/fonts/X11/encodings now.
Updating the paths in the script seems to fix the problem.
