From 99bee6c0549b36ef15f625bab3997cbd70c7b879 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gaetan Nadon Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2014 09:54:01 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Default font path: remove the check for ${sysconfdir}/X11/fontpath.d The location ${sysconfdir}/X11/fontpath.d is unknown at configuration time (only at make time) as evidenced by the configuration output: checking for ${prefix}/etc/X11/fontpath.d... no Unlike font-util for the X fonts, there is no mechanism to query where fontpath.d is. Fedora have chosen /etc/X11 and others have followed, but this is not a standard. It might also be installed at another location, it may or may not be under the xserver installation prefix. We just don't know. Debian does not use this at all. Distros are using --with-default-path when they support fontpath.d, so they never relied on the server default as it never worked. The patch essentially is a noop, which leaves the door open for anyone who could potentially provide a reliable implementation of choosing fontpath.d when applicable.
