I've built new xorg-x11-fonts packages to attempt to resolve bug #173875. The new packages seem to resolve the issue fine for me with local testing. However, since this changes the encodings.dir files which all invocations of mkfontdir and mkfontscale use, it is possible that these changes at least theoretically could change the way that fonts.dir files get generated. It is thus theoretically possible that people's fonts could disappear, or that some other unexpected results could occur after updating to the new font packages. As such, since FC5 is very close, in line with keeping risks to a minimum this late in the cycle, I want to get as many people as possible to upgrade to the new font packages and provide feedback before I consider putting them into rawhide. Please download the following font rpms, and upgrade to all of them with "rpm -Uvh *.rpm" and report back any error messages that occur, or any problems that occur after upgrading to the new packages. Please reboot your system so that xfs, the X server, and whatnot are all completely restarted to maximize the testing benefit. Additionally, I have put a diff of the spec file changes I've made in a file attachment in the bug. Peer review of the changes are also appreciated. The idea here is to try to avoid last minute catastrophes from entering the fray. Your help in testing this is greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=173875 Thanks in advance. -- Mike A.
