Package: mtink Version: 1.0.14-2 Severity: important Tags: l10n Hello!
I've got unreadable symbols instead of normal font letters in the whole mtink application. When launching from a terminal, mtink says: Warning: Cannot convert string "*-urw palladio l-bold-r-normal-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-ru" to type FontStruct Warning: Cannot convert string "*-urw palladio l-*-r-normal-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-ru" to type FontStruct I found the same bug at Mandriva's Mozilla dated 2006 here: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=25315 . There were described 4 different ways of resolving the problem after what this bug has been closed . Unfortunately, nothing of those 4 ways helped me: 1) patch mktink to request for *-koi8-r instead of *-koi8-ru I replaced (manually) all "-koi8-ru" phrases by "-koi8-r" in the mtink sources (3 phrases in each of 3 files - mainSrc/resource.c, utils/Mtink.Ru, utils/Mtink.Ru.utf8-ORG - 9 phrases at all). And I've got the same behaviour and almost the same error message (with "-koi8-r" instead of "-koi8-ru"): Warning: Cannot convert string "*-urw palladio l-bold-r-normal-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-r" to type FontStruct Warning: Cannot convert string "*-urw palladio l-*-r-normal-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-r" to type FontStruct 2) you can try to add ",*" (coma and asterisk) to the font list; so the X server will find a suitable font among all existing fonts; it will always be displayable I'm not sure what is the font list. Supposed that it can be in just those 9 phrases with "-koi8-ru" (already "-koi8-r"), I added after each of them these two symbols: ",*". And I've got mtink without fonts at all, "nude" buttons. The error message rested the same as at the step 2 (with "-koi8-r"). 3) the urw-fonts package can be rebuild to provide -koi8-ru encodings (just using "mkfontscale ; mkfontdir" adds those now) I haven't found any "urw-fonts" package in the Debian repository. Is it just rpm for Mandriva? 4) mtink patched and available in current svn, but not cooker yet. Which svn? Of 2006? I tried to use a newer Debian version: compiled 1.0.16 from lenny sources. And I've got the same behaviour and the same error message as with Etch's 1.0.14.
