Ok, sorry for the confusion. I've finally tracked down this font :-) The "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" truetype font is present in the xorg-x11-fscl-6.8.99.901-1 package, but not in the corresponding source package, it seems probably due to a packaging error. It's not included in the set of fonts available from X.Org currently, so we don't currently have a package for it. (There may be a couple of other fonts which fall into this category) Please bear with me and I'll try to generate a package for this font. In the meantime, you could probably download the font from http://www.gnome.org/fonts/, install the .ttf files into /usr/share/fonts and run fc-cache -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
