lucidatypewriter is not a TTF font.

I would guess that this can be solved by telling fontconfig how to find
bitmap fonts.  The suggested way is to edit /etc/fonts/local.conf, and
add a "<dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>" somewhere between
"<fontconfig>" and "</fontconfig>".  Or, if you haven't edited
/etc/fonts/local.conf, you could probably just run "dpkg-reconfigure
fontconfig" and answer yes to the bitmap font question.  (Assuming
you're running unstable.)
