Yes, I am talking about Gentoo specific packaging issue. I have filed
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=559370
to track it down. As I mentioned, the specific files being talked
about are the font files in /usr/share/fonts/misc
(/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc on Ubuntu) which are character
encodings specific e.g. 9x15-ISO8859-*.pcf.gz. nxagent can not
load a fixed size font '9x15' without the presence of these files.
It looks like these are abandoned by modern X code because both
Xorg and Xvnc work fine without these files.-devsk
Thanks for explaining the above. However, I think that we should
get this issue also solved upstream as most systems work on UTF-8
basis and the more local encodings are rather historical than
current-state-of-the-art.Let's leave this bug open and address it for 3.6.x of nx-libs
instead of dealing with it as a Gentoo specific bug.Mike
This issue has been forwarded to the new upstream location of nx-libs: https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/84
Greets, Mike
This issue will be fixed in nx-libs 3.5.99.4. The fix is to support
libXfont's built-in fonts as final fallback.
