[lug] TrueType Fonts RPM

Additional information: when I run gfontsel, the first font that shows up in 
the list is 'charter'. It seems odd that no fonts show up from earlier in the 
alphabet. 

chkfontpath looks good, all of the font files are there, with permissions 
644, owned by root.

This is really frustrating.

Any ideas?
