Thanks for the reply.

Your document definitely helped a lot in understanding fonts in debain.
So now I tried configuring my fonts using fontconfig, which I assume
means configuration through fonts.conf. So I have the following
~/.fonts.conf:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<!-- /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file to configure system font access -->
<fontconfig>
    <dir>/home/amitu/.fonts</dir>
</fontconfig>

But urxvt still can't seem to use the Dina font which is located in
~/.fonts.

Any ideas?
