Well, now there is the question that I'm curious about. I have installed all of my packages in the normal fashion, but on the problematic machine /sw is actually a symbolic link to /Volumes/data/sw, where "data" is a separate partition on the main disk.
Is that likely the problem? Most of the packages were originally installed in /sw on the main partition, but then I moved it over to /Volumes/data/sw (via rsync). That was some time ago, and this has been the only indication of trouble.
Should I move it back? Is there another method of doing something like this that would be more reliable? Or is this likely not the problem?

The only problem I could imagine from this is that, depending on how you did your rsync, some symbolic links were followed instead of just copied as links. But I don't see how this could lead to your error.


Anyway, you could compare the directory structure below /sw/lib/X11/fonts, in particular the symlink installed by the x-ghostscript-fonts package

% ls -l /sw/lib/X11/fonts/ghostscript/
total 8
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 27 Jan 9 19:43 Type1 -> /sw/share/ghostscript/fonts


and the directory it points to.

Looks fine to me:

% ls -l /sw/lib/X11/fonts/ghostscript/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root admin 27 Oct 29 00:55 Type1 -> /sw/share/ghostscript/fonts/



% ls -l /sw/lib/X11/fonts/ghostscript/Type1/ total 6496 -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 42833 Feb 15 2004 a010013l.afm -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 69958 Feb 15 2004 a010013l.pfb -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 2951 Feb 15 2004 a010013l.pfm -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 42749 Feb 15 2004 a010015l.afm -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 72436 Feb 15 2004 a010015l.pfb (etc etc - removed long listing)

I'm certainly stumped. But that's not saying much. ;-)

Thanks,
Mike
