I checked all these dirs:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root /usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType
drwxrwsr-x 2 root staff /usr/local/share/fonts
All but /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1 have a 'fonts.dir' file in it.
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc
/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi
/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi
contain lots of *.pcf.gz files
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1
contains '*.pfb' softlinks to '../../type1/gsfonts/' which does not exist
/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType
contains softlinks to '/usr/share/fonts/truetype'
/usr/local/share/fonts
contains a softlink to '/usr/share/fonts/X11/encodings/encodings.dir'
and a custom installed font
So I removed '/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1' and the errors where gone.
Thank you very much for the help.
Greetings, Manon.
