Subject: xorg: no xfonts-base left after update
Followup-For: Bug #362894
Package: xorg
Version: 7.0.12
*** Please type your report below this line ***
-- System Information:
Debian Release: testing/unstable
APT prefers unstable
APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-rc2+misdn+v4l
Locale: LANG=de_DE@euro, LC_CTYPE=de_DE@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15)
yesterday 2006-04-16 I updated from debian unstable and got some new
Xorg files. after reboot, no fixed fonts was found by the
xserver. In the /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc there was not a single file!!
I copied from /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc the whole bunch of *.gz fonts and
run
update-fonts-alias -7 misc
update-fonts-dir -7 misc
update-fonts-scale -7 misc
I got a line fixed in fonts.alias. Strane enough, the fonts
7x13-ISO8859-1 was not present at all. There was in MISC not a
single 8859-1 file, but any other from -2 to -15. Installing xfonts-base
healed the situtation. I wonder whether there should
not be a dependency of Xorg or the more appropriate files on xfonts-base
which would avoid xserver failure!
