Ibm5250 emulator requires monspaced fonts. It works fine with Fedora Core 2.

The required fonts were included in xorg-x11-75dpi-fonts package included with 
Fedora Core 2

In Fedora Core 3 the package changed names to fonts-xorg-75dpi
and only includes one encoding (iso10646-1)

What happened to the other font encodings for iso8859-1, iso8859-2 iso8859-5 
and iso8859-15

The changelog does not mention removing this font encoding.

ibm5250 currently requires the following fonts
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-75-75-m-*-iso8859-1
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-75-75-m-*-iso8859-2
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-75-75-m-*-iso8859-5
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-75-75-m-*-iso8859-15
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-100-100-m-*-iso8859-1
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-100-100-m-*-iso8859-2
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-100-100-m-*-iso8859-5
-*-lucidatypewriter-*-r-normal-sans-*-*-100-100-m-*-iso8859-15



Please include the fonts and encodings listed above in the 75 and 100dpi 
packages, or point me to another font package I can get for xorg that includes 
the the fonts listed above.

Thanks
