Description of Problem:

Gnumeric fails to start complaining about font problems and suggesting
I check gnome-print.

How Reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Default install.
2. Picked en_GB locale (dunno whether relevant), and started Gnome via
gdm
3. Started gnumeric from foot menu (same thing happens when starting
from command line after ssh'ing in).

Actual Results:

Dialogue box: "Gnumeric failed to find a suitable default font. Please
verify your gnome-print installation. Your fontmap file could not be
found in the expected location." It then suggested the wrong url for
bugs (it's bugzilla.gnome.org not bugs.gnome.org now) and a set of
information to include with the report.

Expected Results:

I expected it to run :)

Additional Information:

The dialogue box says it's expecting /usr/share/fonts/fontmap

[hobbit@pwca hobbit]$ locate fontmap
/usr/share/fonts/fontmap2
/usr/share/texmf/xdvi/vfontmap
/usr/include/kpathsea/fontmap.h
/usr/include/pango-1.0/pango/pango-fontmap.h

LC_ALL is unset. LANG -- well, when starting gnome from gdm it's
en_GB.ISO-8859-1 and when trying it again by ssh'ing in it was
en_US.

And the libxml version is 1.8.11-3

When starting from a terminal, I get this in the terminal:
** CRITICAL **: file gnome-font-face.c: line 306
(gnome_font_unsized_closest): assertion `face != NULL' failed.

** CRITICAL **: file gnome-font.c: line 244 (gnome_font_new_closest):
