Bug#535061: /usr/bin/xfontsel: xfontesel reports no usuable fonts




When running xfontsel I get

 xfontsel
Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859 font
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset Error: Aborting: no font found
It also seems to be effecting Eterm which reports

Eterm:  Error:  Unable to load font "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-1".  Falling back on "k14"
Eterm:  FATAL:  Couldn't load the fallback font either.  Giving up.

What xfonts-* packages do you have installed?

Cheers,
Julien
