I've installed plenty of fonts (xfonts-100dpi,
xfonts-75dpi, msttcorefonts [for shame!], gsfonts-x11, &c.,
but emacs22 finds roughly zilch.

Our story so far:

I'm running vanilla etch w/Gnome, except for
    a) emacs22 from unstable, and
    b) blowing away X and Gnome, then reinstalling.  (This
       due to some idiocy, I forget quite what, during which
       I damaged X such that gdm couldn't start it up.)

X and Gnome are now quite happy, but when I ask emacs to set
a font is says ``Font not found''.  This obtains even for
such staples as Courier 12-point.

   Reading up (briefly) on defoma, it seems to say that each
app effectively registers itself with defoma, which handles
everything from there on.  I can find no mention of defoma
in any of the emacs .postinsts, nor can I see any way from
the command line to make defoma register emacs.

   ``apt-get install --reinstall emacs22'' doesn't change
things.

   Searching this year's archive of debian-user, for ``emacs
fonts'', shows nothing.

   Anyone have any ideas?
