But I'm not sure what you have to do to make xfig find them.I just looked at Fedora's xfig packaging (https://src.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/xfig.git), and the two most recent commits fix issues with the urw fonts. So maybe Cygwin's xfig needs something similar.I might do that although these patches look extra hairy. But, reading the commit messages I start to wonder if it's not the URW font package that needs fixing (there might still be a need to patch some things in xfig)? I'd not want to fl<y in some patches that don't actually fix the problem, but just shove it further out.
What a mess! There's a comment just yesterday at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1551219#c8suggesting that there will be some Fedora changes in the urw font package coming this week. So let's wait for the dust to settle, and then I hope we can just copy whatever solution Fedora comes up with.
