From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050719 Red Hat/1.0.6-1.4.1 Firefox/1.0.6 Description of problem: Some x3270 fonts (e.g. the default font 3270e) is not recognized by xfs (missing in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir). In release x3270-x11-3.3.2.p1 the fonts are recognized. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): x3270-x11-3.3.2.p1-7 and xorg-x11-xfs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just install x3270-x11-3.3.2.p1-7 2. Start x3270 3. Actual Results: In /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir the entry for the x3270-default-font (3270e.pcf.gz) is missing. x3270 will use a very small font size by default (unreadable) A manual selection of the default font (options menu) has no effect Expected Results: 1. There needs to be the entry for 3270.pcf.gz. 2. x3270 should use this font (it did in release x3270-x11-3.3.2.p1). Additional info:
We have limited QA testing capabilities and I'm sorry to say that I can't get a free slot for this package as there are more urgent ones which have priority. Please try the following: - check that /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc is listed when you run 'chkfontpath' - add /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc if necessary with 'chkfontpath -a /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc' - run mkfontdir in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc: 'cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc;mkfontdir .' - restart xfs 'service xfs restart'
