Bug#131336: more information

[Matt Swift <swift@alum.mit.edu>]

As of tetex-bin 2.0.2-3, this bug is still present.  Also, the setting
of the X resource XDvi.not1lib and/or XDvi*not1lib to "true" or
"false" has no effect on the program.  To turn off the use of the T1
library, one must use the command-line option -not1lib.

The following test file demonstrates that some fonts look very bad with
t1lib and look good without it.  This seems to be a problem that
upstream wants to be reported to it.  Quoting from the xdvi man page:

     -not1lib (.not1lib) This will disable the use of T1Lib to display
                  PostScript<tm> fonts.  Use this option as a
                  workaround when you encounter problems with the
                  display of T1Lib (but please don't forget to send a
                  bug report in this case, to the URL mentioned in the
                  section AUTHORS below).
