The problem seems to have been fonts.{scale,dir} files that weren't upgraded when I upgraded from f8 to f9. After doing fc-cache /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1

This does not help on my system. F9 (upgraded from F8), xorg-x11-fonts-Type1-7.2-6.fc9.noarch fontconfig-2.5.0-2.fc9.i386 fc-cache does not touch fonts.{scale,dir}, apparently. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When fontforge crashed on me, only these two files referenced "cour.pfa" in any way: /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1/fonts.dir /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1/fonts.scale After I uninstalled and reinstalled xorg-x11-fonts-Type1, fontforge worked again and the two files didn't reference cour.pfa anymore. It seems to me that the mkfontdir, mkfontscale commands in the %post/%postun scripts fail to remove references to fonts that are removed from the fonts.dir, fonts.scale files. In that case, the problem is not in the fonts packages, but in these tools. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450709 --- Comment #24 from Bug Zapper <fedora-triage-list(a)redhat.com> 2009-06-09 21:31:09 EDT --- This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
