Hi,

Looking at comment 3 it seems that the X11 symlink really is the problem, with
that symlink I get the following:

[hans at shalem ~]$ fc-match Courier
courR12-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz: "Courier" "Regular"

So no "Nimbus ..." involved at all, I guess paps does not know how to deal with
pcf files is causing the problem here. More in general having Courier switch
font is definitely an undesirable side-effect of adding the X11 symlink.

Without the symlink I get:

[hans at shalem fonts]$ fc-match Courier
n022003l.pfb: "Nimbus Mono L" "Regular"

Note the already includes the " L" suffix which is new in F-21, so bug 1147931
is not a problem here. I'll go and revert the addition of the symlink, and
instead patch luit to use the proper search path for Fedora.
