    Yes, fc-list shows the Liberation-* fonts.

    xfontsel and the X11/Motif application do not find them.


Nor should they, as X11/Motif uses freetype2.

On Fedora 34, xfontsel does find the liberation fonts.

X11/Motif support (or at least, claims to support) Type 1 and
TrueType (TTF) as well.

It has been years since I installed scalable fonts (PFB) on SGI IRIX64.
The hard part was constructing the XLFD files.

https://twiserandom.com/unix/x11-fonts-a-tutorial/index.html <https://twiserandom.com/unix/x11-fonts-a-tutorial/index.html>

has a lot of detail that looks familiar.

Thanks.  I have seen that.
