Comment 1 Dan Kenigsberg 2009-07-05 18:23:45 UTC
The problem is that culmus now carries DavidCLM as TrueType font instead of Type1. This is one reason that tex-fonts-hebrew is broken; I think there are others, since other fonts fail as well.

Comment 2 Matan Ziv-Av 2009-07-22 11:05:33 UTC
The culmus-david-clm-fonts package now includes Type1 fonts. Does tex-fonts-hebrew need to be rebuilt, or are more changes needed?

Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2009-07-22 19:23:06 UTC

Surprisingly, a rebuild was enough. Please test http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/tex-fonts-hebrew/0.1/12.fc11/noarch/tex-fonts-hebrew-0.1-12.fc11.noarch.rpm and report your success in https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/tex-fonts-hebrew-0.1-12.fc11 so it is more likely to be pushed to updates.

Comment 5 Fedora Update System 2009-07-23 19:02:49 UTC
tex-fonts-hebrew-0.1-12.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
