When in a "conversation" window, clicking on the "Font Face" button causes gaim-0.70 to spew the following to stderr: ** (gaim:199): WARNING **: Couldn't load font "fixed Medium Semi-Condensed 0" falling back to "Sans Medium Semi-Condensed 0" ** (gaim:199): WARNING **: Couldn't load font "Sans Medium Semi-Condensed 0" falling back to "Sans 0" ** (gaim:199): WARNING **: All font failbacks failed!!!! ...at which point the program exits. Googling this error message points to an improperly configured freetype2 library or fontconfig configuration. However, as far as I can tell, there are no configuration problems on my system: fc-list spits out 30 a number of fonts, although none that start with "Sans" proper. This is a brand new system, so unfortunately I'm unsure if previous versions of GAIM have worked properly. System: FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE + latest security patches XFree86 4.3.0 with all stock fonts Related ports: freetype-1.3.1_2 gettext-0.12.1 gtk-2.2.4_1 glib-2.2.3 pango-1.2.5 (from ports-current as of 10/1/2003) If anyone has any ideas, or can at least confirm that they are experiencing the same problem with this version of GAIM, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks, Steve
