Re: why doesn't XF86Config-4 include defoma-managed TrueType fonts?

Are you saying that you now have _two_ Files sections?


Yup.  startx, etc. without a hiccup.
XFree86 wouldn't let me start until I bracketed those two FontPath lines--the Section/EndSection seemed logical, and is just the first thing I tried ;-/ 

That's odd.  Here's my Files Section from my XF86Config-4:
Section "Files"
        FontPath        "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
        FontPath        "/usr/share/fonts/truetype"
        FontPath        "/var/lib/defoma/gs.d/dirs/fonts"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
EndSection

Works great for me...


This is good.

But, I'm concerned about the lines:

# If you want your changes to this file preserved by dexconf, only make changes
# before the "### BEGIN DEBCONF SECTION" line above, and/or after the
# "### END DEBCONF SECTION" line below.

Am I misinterpreting the warning?  I manage XF86Config-4 with debconf.
I know the file almost by heart, but seem to remember Branden warning about making changes between those lines . . . .
