Whoops, I'm seeing a couple more that may throw a wrench in the works.
This is all according to paldo.
font-util probably needs --libdir=/usr/share
libfontenc probably needs --with-encodingsdir=/usr/share/X11/fonts.
Juerg's building libXfont with make FONTDIR=/usr/share/X11/fonts
http://www.paldo.org/paldo/specs/font-util.xml
http://www.paldo.org/paldo/specs/fontenc.xml
http://www.paldo.org/paldo/specs/xfont.xml
That would throw off the "Build all the packages with these commands."
Sorry, guys. I got way ahead of myself before. Seems like the plan
to let X do the defaults but build fontconfig with --without-add-fonts
and make symlinks in /usr/share/fonts is the most sensible thing to do
for the book.
