Package: xfig
Version: 1:3.2.5-alpha5-7
Severity: important

I cannot really use xfig anymore, as it almost always warns me about
fonts it cannot find. It seems I can only use exactly those fonts
which xlsfonts lists, but setting the text size to e.g. 29 in XFig,
gives me the following errors:

  Can't find -*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--32-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13
  Can't find -*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--31-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13

If I set it to 31, it works. If I set it to 32, I get

  Can't find -*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--36-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13

It's worse if I zoom. Then pretty much all text gets converted to 6x13.

I am almost sure this did not use to be the case.
