Oh, OK; do you know what replaces it?  How are fonts registered with
the system now?

I get the correct images, but in the bottom left corner of the screen
when I first go to the page or reload the page, I see messages saying
that it is downloading the fonts, rather than using the ones I have
installed on my system.  (A packet analysis using wireshark shows the
same.)  According to the STIX webpage, one needs to run something like
fc-cache when installing the fonts.  I know this used to be the
responsibility of defoma....
