Missing charsets in String to Font



Hi

I upgraded my unstable system last night and ran into a problem with
running xemacs, xterm and xfontsel (only these apps so far) on X Window.
See the error messages below the line.

I'm running xemacs21-mule 21.4.8-2 and xterm 4.1.0-17.

xemacs from the console or "xemacs -nw" both start up OK.

I have xfonts-75dpi and xfonts-100dpi installed.

The only thing to do with fonts in last night's upgrade was
msttcorefonts.  I've since removed that package but it hasn't helped.

These xemacs21-mule bugs: #133607 and #160973, appear to relate to my
problem.  I tried the solution suggested in the first one, intalling
xfonts-100dpi-transcoded, but that didn't work.

Has anyone else this problem?

Starting xemacs from an xterm produces:
		Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
		Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset

		Fatal error (11).

		[snip]

		Lisp backtrace follows:

		  # bind (frame-being-created)
		  make-frame(nil #<x-device on ":0.0" 0x25ce>)
		  frame-initialize()
		  # bind (debugger debug-on-error command-line-args-left)
		  command-line()
		  # (condition-case ... . ((t (byte-code "	Â?" ... 1))))
		  # bind (error-data)
		  normal-top-level()
		  # (condition-case ... . error)
		  # (catch top-level ...)

Starting an xterm and then (as I often do) C-right-click (to change the
size of the font) produces:
		Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
		Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
		Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859-1 font
