xfonts-jmk under Debian
Holy mother of God.
If you want to install xfonts-jmk, notable for its wonderful Neep (and my personal preference, "Neep Alt") fonts, under Debian, and actually have these fonts available to use in your Gnome/X applications, or say, from the Preferences -> Appearance -> Fonts menu, *don't just sit there scratching your ass wondering why everything you've done seems right, but fontconfig and friends just don't recognize and pick up the fucking font*.
dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config(yes, that -config at the end is intentional).
*ENABLE BITMAPPED FONTS*. Really, I can't believe they disabled this by default. Holy gods, Debian, I swear to god I'm going to kill someone.
Then, a mere:
dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
fc-cache -fv
xset fp rehash and you're done.
I can't believe I need to do this shit in the 21st Century.
