[CentOS] Certain fonts missing from xlsfonts in Centos 6.4
I have a certain software on CentOS 6.4 that gave the following error:
X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist)
Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Serial number of failed
request: 15 Current serial number in output stream: 30
Running strace shows that the error happens just about here:
writev(4, [{"-\2\21\0\4\0\240\0027\0\240\2-adobe-helvetica-bol"...,
...
I thought some fonts were missing from my system, so I went on to insall
all xorg-x11-fonts-* packages on my system. The Adobe fonts should be
included in the xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi package.
I thought the fonts may not be in the fonts path, so I ran xset q. The
fonts seemed to be in the X font path.

Despite all these, the font requried (any font from the Adobe family) seems
not to be reported with xlsfonts, and the application error persists.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
