Subject: [9fans] ghostscript not finding LucidaSans
Date: Sun, 27 Jun 2010 21:07:14 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <731ED516-1A13-4296-BE0C-2C18D7D62532@mac.com> (raw)

 From an install to 9vx (built from mercurial on OS X 10.5.8) from
yesterday's CD image (though apparently some people on IRC have this
problem too):

term% man -P man

Hello
(^d)\x04converting from troff to postscript...
reading through postscript...
Ghostscript Error:

Fontmap entry for LucidaSans ends prematurely!  Giving up.

I don't understand what's going on here but as far as I can tell /sys/
lib/postscript/fonts/LucidaSans has never existed in the Plan 9
directory tree (checking sourcesdump) and my old VM works fine without
it. Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.
