Bug 118293

Summary: net/vnc Xvnc won't run without fonts.alias installed
Product: Ports & Packages Reporter: Clint Olsen <clint.olsen>
Component: Individual Port(s)Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs (Nobody) <ports-bugs>

Description Clint Olsen 2007-11-28 01:20:01 UTC 
When building VNC (net/vnc) with the server option, Xvnc and vncserver and
friends are built.  Xvnc is the X server for the VNC session.  However, if
the server cannot find the 'fixed' font, which is supposed to be in
fonts.alias, the server dies.

Fix: 

Install x11-fonts/font-alias.  This should be a dependency of this port
when the server option is selected.
How-To-Repeat: 
Install Xorg and VNC via the ports collection with the X server option
enabled in VNC.
