Description D Wollmann 2003-01-22 09:52:49 UTC

Starting gvim from the command line in a term (xterm or gnome-multi-terminal)
results in these warnings, repeated several times (they scroll off):

Gdk-WARNING **: Missing charsets in FontSet creation
Gdk-WARNING **:     ISO8859-1
Gdk-WARNING **:     ISO8859-1

guifont seems to work as well as it did in the prior build, so I classify this
as a minor annoyance at this point in time.

I would like to include more useful details that might help diagnose the
problem, but I'm not sure what information to include. If more details are
required please let me know and I'll gather them right away.

Another Gtk application that I just merged (xqf) is spewing the same warnings.

I don't see these warnings from Gtk applications merged a few weeks ago, so I'm
inclined to close this bug and submit one for Gtk/Gdk. On the off chance that
these warnings indicate the need to modify the way gvim is built, I'll leave
this open until it's been reviewed.

Changing to INVALID.

Apparently something had messed up my Xft cache. A little tuning of
/etx/X11/XftConfig (commenting out non-existent font directories) and running
xftcache(1) seems to have cleared everything up.

Sorry for the noise.
