Sorry, but i don't understand this:
If such a patch was requested and applied why does the program exit
after not finding one set of fixed fonts?
((There is only one errormsg /to be precise - one msg twice/,
and also it is misleading as it does not specify that it is looking
for /in my case/ *-iso8859-15 fonts.))


This also suggests that the maintainers are aware of (at least some)
problems on this "front". This is to put it very softly, as John did
it earlier "a bit naughty" against all those "stupid users" like me.
