--- Comment #2 from Niels De Graef <ndegraef(a)redhat.com&gt; ---
xorg-x11-font-utils has been deaggregated into several packages (see
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/XorgUtilityDeaggregation for the
reasoning) in RHEL 9.

Of those packagges, only mkfontscale is now available as individual package,
all other subpackages (bdf2pcf, fonttosfnt and font-utils itself) are no longer
available.

So the question is, of all these packages, which one do you require? :)

I should have an answer for you in a couple of weeks -- I know we needed this
for Chromium, but the engineer that was driving that work is currently on
vacation and was going to double check on the specifics when they get back.
I'll leave the needinfo so I don't forget to followup. Thanks!

What I'm dealing with is that no package seems to own /usr/share/X11/fonts -
see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2104350

Thanks, I moved that BZ to the right component so it should get the necessary
attention.

Since xorg-x11-font-utils is then not needed anymore (and it doesn't exist
anymore anyway), I'm going to close this as a duplicate of 2104350 then

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2104350 ***
