- I accidently introduced a bug in the font selection code with regard to non-
- ISO fonts (e.g. Symbol). Just change the code in the file u_font.c that adds
- iso-8859 to the font name from this:
-
- strcat(template,"*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*");
-
- to this:
- strcat(template,"*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*");
-
- There are TWO such instances.
- This will be fixed in 2.1.5 (not out yet).
