Lots of X programs (xemacs, xlogo, xfig) complain of missing fonts
(and end
up using some cheesy default font). I reported this originally against
xemacs (at 478999), and now changed it to xorg-x11 as I believe this is a
better match. xfontsel has only 4 fonts to exhibit now in all. This is
probably due to the ongoing font handling overhaul in rawhide.
In any case, could somebody knowledgeable on this point me (OK, make that
"handhold me") in the direction to fix this?
I opened a similar bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476531
It was fixed by adding xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi and
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi to the "Requires:" list of the package
(in my case DDD).
I don't know the history on it, but I suspect that one or the other of
these two packages was once a part of the core Xorg packages and was
later broken out. Individual packages relying on these fonts were not
updated to be aware of the change.
