Unless base/xfont "fontconfig" was declared too old again recently, "fonts/fontconfig/builtin.mk" uses base/xfont "fontconfig" on -current (and now netbsd-9). I'm in the process of building 9.0_BETA, so I haven't had a chance to double-check yet, but not too long ago, -current systems definitely did use base/xfont "fontconfig", which is why I set the link for 70-no-bitmaps.conf. > I think the answer to this part is to remove the whole entry in xetc/mi > for 70-no-bitmaps.conf, it was only made part of the build for one day. I'm not clear about this as a solution, unless you mean to eliminate the situation that causes the file to run afoul of 'postinstall's checks. I hope you don't mean to remove that file. If pkgsrc packages are using base/xfont 'fontconfig', then I need that link set to get legible hardcopy of web pages (i.e. printing receipts from some online merchants or temporary permits issued online by my state or local goverment agencies). -- |/"\ John D.
