Description of problem: I have discovered what appears to be a difference between the fonts.dir file in /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 created on an initial install of Fedora and that which results after a re-install. Specifically, the trailing part of the name of the "Standard Symbols L" font is "adobe-fontspecific" after install but "adobe-symbol" after reinstall. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora on a new system. 2. grep Symbol /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/fonts.dir This will produce two lines of output: s050000l.pfb -urw-Standard Symbols L-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-adobe-fontspecific s050000l.pfb -urw-Standard Symbols L-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1 3. Reinstall urw-fonts using the commands rpm -i --replacepkgs urw-fonts-2.1-5.1.noarch.rpm 4. grep Symbol /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/fonts.dir The first line of output will have a trailing "adobe-symbol" instead of "adobe-fontspecific" Actual results: The fonts.dir files produced above are different. Expected results: They should be the same. Additional info:
Fedora Core 1 is maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thanks! NOTE: Fedora Core 1 is reaching the final end of support even by the Legacy project. After Fedora Core 6 Test 2 is released (currently scheduled for July 26th), there will be no more security updates for FC1. Please use these next two weeks to upgrade any remaining FC1 systems to a current release.
Closing per lack of response. Note that FC1 and FC2 are no longer supported even by Fedora Legacy. Please install a still supported version and retest. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4 and is a security issue, please assign to that version and Fedora Legacy. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version.
