[Xastir] Font errors continue

[David Flood]

Hello Jim,

The first part of that message is, despite the fact that it happens faster 
than once a second, harmless.  The references to Character 260 are the result 
of some language support changes that were made a couple of months ago.

A temporary fix, until someone has the ATU's to track down all the offending 
code, is to launch Xastir like this:

LANG=C xastir

The command is case sensitive and tells Xastir to use a generic language set 
rather than the one the rest of your system is set to.

That still won't fix the problem with "get_rotated_label".  Those messages 
seem to indicate that not enough different fonts were loaded into your system. 
Based on your previous emails you're using a PI with Raspbian which doesn't 
install a lot of extra fonts by default.  Unfortunately I don't have a working 
Raspbian or Debian system to see which packages need to be installed to supply 
the fonts.  Perhaps I should spend some iced-in time to that 
project...hummmmmmm
