hi I tried this game, and could not use it, due to this bug. Here are a few important facts: --- fact 1 According to this command: $ dpkg -l '*font*' | grep ^ii ii dfontmgr 0.11.10 GUI frontend for Defoma, DEbian FOnt MAnager ii fontconfig 2.4.2-1 generic font configuration library - support ii fontconfig-config 2.4.2-1 generic font configuration library - configu ii gsfonts 8.11+urwcyr1.0.7~pre41-1 Fonts for the Ghostscript interpreter(s) ii gsfonts-x11 0.20 Make Ghostscript fonts available to X11 ii latex-xft-fonts 0.1-5 Xft-compatible versions of some LaTeX fonts ii libfont-afm-perl 1.19-1 Font::AFM - Interface to Adobe Font Metrics ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1 generic font configuration library - runtime ii libfontconfig1-dev 2.4.2-1 generic font configuration library - develop ii libfontenc1 1.0.2-2 X11 font encoding library ii libxfont1 1.2.2-1 X11 font rasterisation library ii msttcorefonts 1.5 Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts ii psfontmgr 0.11.10 PostScript font manager -- part of Defoma, D ii ttf-freefont 20060501cvs-9 Freefont Serif, Sans and Mono Truetype fonts ii unifont 1.0-3 X11 dual-width GNU Unicode font ii x-ttcidfont-conf 25 Configure TrueType and CID fonts for X ii xfonts-75dpi 1.0.0-3 75 dpi fonts for X ii xfonts-75dpi-transcoded 1.0.0-3 75 dpi fonts for X (transcoded from ISO 1064 ii xfonts-base 1.0.0-4 standard fonts for X ii xfonts-dosemu 1.2.2-8 VGA font for the DOS Emulator ii xfonts-encodings 1.0.0-6 Encodings for X.Org fonts ii xfonts-intl-european 1.2.1-6 International fonts for X -- European ii xfonts-scalable 1.0.0-6 scalable fonts for X ii xfonts-utils 1.0.1-1 X Window System font utility programs I have a quite reasonably complete set of fonts installed here, Moreover, according to the command $ xlsfonts -fn '-misc-fixed-medium-*-normal-*-15-0-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1' -misc-fixed-medium-o-normal--15-0-100-100-c-0-iso8859-1 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-0-100-100-c-0-iso8859-1 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-0-100-100-c-0-iso8859-1 my installed fonts can provide the required family. --- fact 2 my X was automatically configured --- fact 3 this bug was reported 4 years ago and never fixed or addressed in any way ---- Truth is, this game does not work in a standard Etch install ; for this reason, I do not see it suitable for the Etch release: hence I am upgrading this bug severity. To correct this bug, -) either add dependency on a font package that is capable of satisfying -) or at least add an explanation somewhere on how to solve this problem : add some 'grep blahblah /etc/X11/xorg.conf' in postinst, and/or a huge debconf warning, explaining what is needed to have it working a. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-k7 Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages xarchon depends on: ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libesd-alsa0 [libesd0] 0.2.36-3 Enlightened Sound Daemon (ALSA) - ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-21 GCC support library ii libglib1.2 1.2.10-17 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk1.2 1.2.10-18 The GIMP Toolkit set of widgets fo ii libice6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-3 X11 Session Management library ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-21 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.5-2 X11 pixmap library ii xarchon-theme-default [xarch 0.50-10 The default theme for XArchon xarchon recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Andrea Mennucc "E' un mondo difficile.
