That is to be expected; fontconfig disables bitmap fonts by default. 
More importantly, plotutils does not have a dependency on libfontconfig1 
or libXft2, which means it uses these as core fonts.  How those are 
installed also changed at the same time.

Make sure you have mkfontdir and mkfontscale, then in src_install:

	fontinto tektronix
	dofont pcf/*.pcf

	dodir /etc/X11/fontpath.d
	dosym /usr/share/fonts/tektronix /etc/X11/fontpath.d/tektronix:unscaled

There will be no postinstall for the fonts.
