Hello, I have a problem with rebuilding the TinyERP package for Fedora Extras. It needs to start a X server during the build process, so there is a "BuildRequires" dependency on xorg-x11-server-xvfb. The X server needs a default font "fixed", so there is a "BuildRequires" dependency on xorg-x11-fonts-base. When you look into the fonts-base package than the font "fixed" is defined in the /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.alias file. This was sufficient at least until the last build of this package on July 24. In current Fedora Devel there is a problem because the font "fixed" cannot be found. So what happened to the font "fixed"? You can find the build logs at http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-development-extras/16094-tinyerp-3.3.0-3.fc6/
Each of the X server subpackages that requires fixed/cursor fonts in order to work properly at runtime, should be doing: Requires: xorg-x11-fonts-base That way at X server installation time, there is a runtime dependency on the fonts that are required to operate properly. I could have sworn such a dependency was present before, however I could be mistaken, or it's possible the dependency was removed to allow OLPC to be able to install a minimal installation or somesuch. I haven't tracked recent Fedora X packaging though.. it's possible a glitch might have creeped in perhaps. Check and make sure that The actual fonts are installed, and that there is a valid fonts.dir in the directory. -- Mike A.
