For my work I need to test updates to an old Motif-era X-Windows application.
However, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS does not seem to include the old X Windows bitmap(?) fonts. When the program starts I get the familiar "missing font" messages:
Warning: Cannot convert string "-adobe-times-medium-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" to type FontStruct
Warning: Cannot convert string "-adobe-new century schoolbook-bold-r-*-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" to type FontStruct
... etc.
Without those exact fonts all the dialogue windows have different text with weird spacings & sizes. My automated tests rely on the dialogue buttons being in the same place, and they now aren't.
Is there any way to install these old fonts?
I have already installed the packages: xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi (xfonts-base is installed by default), as per this answer.
EDIT: It's not xfonts-traditional either.
EDIT2: They're working now. Maybe you have to re-generate the font-cache/index yourself, or at least logout/reboot. I tried a whole bunch of stuff myself, so I'm not sure exactly what it was.
