Hi all,

I had a bear of a time getting Abiword 0.7 RPMs to work. I've just
upgraded to RH6.

Every time I ran abiword, it gave a handful of messages stating that it
couldn't find a helvetica font. After inspecting
/usr/share/abisuite/fonts, I added the following line to the fonts.dir
file:

n019003l.pfa -AbiSource-Helvetica-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1

Note the 'a' on the end of 'Helvetica'. I don't know if this is the
correct fix, but abiword now runs on my system.

I'm not on the list, so please cc replies to me.
