HI all,
I try to build and use latest gvim 7.3 (the same problem with 7.2).
After compilation and installation, I run gvim and it fails with:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
E665: Cannot start GUI, no valid font found
Press ENTER or type command to continue
After that gvim runs without GUI. As I found in WEB, the problem is is
+xfontset feature.
I did not find how to remove the feature. If I understand correct, by
default it is disabled.
Also, according to src/auto/config.log:
configure:6131: checking --enable-fontset argument
configure:6140: result: no
So, my expectation is it will be built with -xfontset. However,
--version returns:
