[Bug 1118557] xdvi: cannot display dvi ("Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion" / "Unable to load any usable fontset")

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1118557 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1118557#c11 --- Comment #11 from Ulrich Windl <Ulrich.Windl@rz.uni-regensburg.de> --- (In reply to Stefan Brüns from comment #10)

Let me repeat: ** TEX FONTS ARE IRRELEVANT HERE **

xdvi is missing an X11 Core font. Create a DVI file with an empty page, you will get the same error.

Excuse me if I thought Tex is using TeX fonts, just as xdvi does. I don't understand: About every program except xdvi (and a few related, maybe) have not problems finding or displaying fonts, and my system passes all the checks I performed so far. Still xdvi does not work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
