Bug Description

Binary package hint: xfonts-dosemu

xfonts-dosemu installs fonts in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc

$ dpkg -L xfonts-dosemu | grep pcf
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/vga.pcf.gz
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/dosemu-vga11x19.pcf.gz
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/vga-cp866.pcf.gz
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/vga10x20-cp866.pcf.gz

when presumably it should install into /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc

$ dpkg -L xfonts-base | grep pcf | head
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/10x20-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/10x20-ISO8859-11.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/10x20-ISO8859-16.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/10x20.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/12x13ja.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/12x24.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/12x24rk.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/18x18ja.pcf.gz
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/18x18ko.pcf.gz

Effect is that xdosemu can't load VGA fonts unless manually adjusted.

This is how it looks in Debian:

$ dpkg -L xfonts-dosemu | grep pcf
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/vga.pcf.gz
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/dosemu-vga11x19.pcf.gz

Hi,

I'm marking this bug as Fix Released, since xfonts-dosemu in ubuntu has the same layout as the debian package.

Please reopen, if you still have problems with the fonts as of version 1.2.2-5ubuntu1.

Cheers,
       Stefan.
