Description Fritz Elfert 2000-02-08 22:48:23 UTC 
mkfontdir in your current distribution is broken due to your "xfsftfontdir"
patch. (patch #22 in .src.rpm). The directory argument is never evaluated,
and therefore no font.dir is created. Here is a patch for that.
Hope, the bugzilla web-interface clobbers it too much:
