The problem can be easily solved. The file /etc/grace/FontDataBase is slightly corrupted. In the last line of the file, two lines aer joined. If you insert a <CR> after URW-Palladio-L-Bold-Italic URW-Palladio-L-Bold-Italic p052024l.pfb, you create the line for Symbol and grace works again! If the maintainer reads this mail, please correct the file in a updated package Thank you! Grr... Thanks for the hint. If at least there was a glimpse of grace 6 all this mess would be gone. :-( The line is actually the one following that: As of reporting, this read, "Symbol Symbol s050000l.pfbURW-Chancery-L-Medium-Italic URW-Chancery-L-Medium-Italic z003034l.pfb" Should read, "Symbol Symbol s050000l.pfb URW-Chancery-L-Medium-Italic URW-Chancery-L-Medium-Italic z003034l.pfb" That solved the problem. Thank you! This problem affects F-13 as well. I am trying to understand what goes wrong in the creation of the FontDataBase file. OK, as far as I understand the problem it seems that the cure to bug 504413 is now the poison to this bug. I will test a bit more before issuing updates. grace-5.1.22-7.fc13 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/grace-5.1.22-7.fc13 grace-5.1.22-7.fc12 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 12. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/grace-5.1.22-7.fc12 grace-5.1.22-7.fc13 has been pushed to the Fedora 13 testing repository.
