Synopsis

xorg-x11-fonts bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated xorg-x11-fonts packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The xorg-x11-fonts packages provide X.Org X Window System fonts.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the Japanese TrueType fonts provided by the ipa-gothic-fonts package were not available through the core X11 font system. This update fixes the xorg-x11-fonts packages, which now correctly provide the required encodings.dir directory listings. As a result, the Japanese TrueType fonts are now available in the core X11 font system as expected. (BZ#1089118)

Users of xorg-x11-fonts are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
