/etc/init.d/xfs does not seem to strip suffixes from directories in /etc/X11/fs/config. The artwiz-fonts package for example, uses a :unscaled suffix in it's font entry in the xfs config file (/usr/share/fonts/artwiz:unscaled). The get_fontdir_list() function doesn't strip this suffix and thus the artwiz directory (and any other directory with a suffix in config) is not scanned.
Created attachment 26738 [details, diff] Patch for init.d/xfs OK this patch strips the suffixes Well actually it strips anything from the ':' onwards (inclusive) that is classified as a alphabetic character or number under the charset on the local machine. This is compliant with POSIX. A ',' is not an alpha-number hence not stripped. If any suffixes do not meet alpha-num please indicate here so futher scans can be introduced.
Fixed in 4.3.0-r6.
