xfig font failure

[John Thompson]

I haven't used xfig since updating from Fedora-10 to Fedora-11, and
today when I finally had occasion to try it, it doesn't work:

Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
Warning: Cannot convert string "6x13" to type FontStruct
Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859 font
Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859 font

Google tells me that Debian people found this results from a missing
"gsfonts-X11" package, but Fedora has no such package.

What am I missing?

What do you have to do to see the errors?  I just started xfig from the
menu on my F11.x86_64 laptop, and it starts and shows me a blank
workspace.  When I start it from the command line, I see no messages.
