rrdtool on 11.1 requests the font
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSansMono.ttf
from fontconfig, this can be seen with FC_DEBUG:
mfabian@magellan:~$ FC_DEBUG=1
/usr/share/doc/packages/rrdtool/examples/stripes.pl | head
FC_DEBUG=1
FC_DEBUG=1
Sort Pattern has 18 elts (size 32)
family: "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSansMono.ttf"(s)
"DejaVu Sans"(w) "MS Gothic"(w) "IPAPGothic"(w) "Arial"(w) "Albany
AMT"(w) "Verdana"(w) "DejaVu Sans"(w) "Liberation Sans"(w) "SUSE
Sans"(w) "Bitstream Vera Sans"(w) "Nimbus Sans L"(w) "Luxi Sans"(w)
"Mukti Narrow"(w) "KacstBook"(w) "Nachlieli CLM"(w) "Helvetica"(w)
"Khmer OS System"(w) "Lohit
But this is an incorrect (non-existing) fontname for
fontconfig, the correct name would be "DejaVu Sans Mono"
mfabian@magellan:~$ fc-list : family file | grep DejaVuSansMono.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSansMono.ttf: DejaVu Sans Mono
mfabian@magellan:~$
Maybe one should better use the generic "monospace" alias instead
to match the preferred monospace font on the system.
Which maybe be "DejaVu Sans Mono" again depending
on the fontconfig setup, the language, and the installed fonts:
mfabian@magellan:~$ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 fc-match monospace
msgothic.ttc: "MS Gothic" "Regular"
mfabian@magellan:~$ LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8 fc-match monospace
DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book"
mfabian@magellan:~$
