This is the first I've heard of the problem since I modified the spec file to
actually function in conjunction with the newly added fontmap file about a year
ago:

	* gnome-print.spec.in: Fixed the run-gnome-font-install/no font found
	problem.

As I recall, when the fontmap file was changed to fontmap2, the only change
required to the spec file was a global substitution.

I bet 99.9% of the problems are people ignoring RPM dependencies and breaking
their system by installing incompatible RPM's.

It might have helped to copy me on the fontmap discussion, but I will take a
look at the changes and see if they're any good.
