[Bug 312804] [NEW] fails to display text in graphs

[jepler]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: awffull

System information:
$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release:	8.04
$ apt-cache policy awffull libgd2-noxpm ttf-bitstream-vera | egrep '^[a-z]|Installed'
awffull:
  Installed: 3.8.1beta3-1
libgd2-noxpm:
  Installed: 2.0.35.dfsg-3ubuntu2
ttf-bitstream-vera:
  Installed: 1.10-7

awffull fails to display text in the graphs it produces.

How to reproduce:

In the shell, execute the following command (all on one line and take care to copy single and double quotes exactly as shown):
    echo '1.1.1.1 - - [31/Dec/2008:00:00:00 -0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 200 "-" ""' | awffull -c /etc/awffull/awffull.conf -o /tmp -
then view the image /tmp/usage.png  (this command runs the default awffull configuration with one line of log)

Expected behavior:
The image contains text that labels the various parts of the graph

Actual behavior:
The image does not contain any text

strace shows that awffull searches many locations for Vera.ttf and
VeraBd.ttf, but doesn't find it.

The text will appear if you create a symlink to the bitstream fonts:
/usr/share/fonts/bitstream-vera -> truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/ -- you
may have to remove files created in /tmp by an earlier run of awffull
before it will regenerate usage.png.
