           Summary: Installing fonts with DESTDIR may only use encodings
                    builtin into fontenc
           Product: xorg
           Version: CVS_head
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: Fonts/other
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: roland.mainz at nrubsig.org
                CC: eich at pdx.freedesktop.org


Installing fonts with DESTDIR may only use XLFD encodings which are builtin into
fontenc itself, e.g. any *.enc tables are not honored unless there is already an
X11 installation installed.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add new encoding "xyz-blabla.2004" as
"xc/fonts/encodings/xyz-blabla.2004.enc", update
"xc/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir" and add the encoding to
xc/programs/mkfontscale/mkfontscale.c
2. Do a
% cd xc/fonts/
% make install DESTDIR=/tmp/xptestinstall003 2>&1 | tee -a ../install.log
3. Look at the fonts.dir files

Result:
The new encoding does not show up as "xc/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir" will not
be used duing installation

Expected result:
The new encoding should be used.

(new encoding for testing can be found in bug 1703)
