Summary:  with X 4.3 xlib backend is dead (except on bload distros))

Original Submission:  this was at first a new :
font_cacher , no error ... all my apps shows no fonts !
and all the color/etc answer not working ending in use backart.

By luck i removed obsolete /etc/X11/XftConfig from one of my distro (even 
debian sometimes leaves dead files :(

and font_cacher and font_disappeared , rebuild this file + font_caher , fonts 
back ....

Could you either remove xlib backend or insert xft2 pathces  .
No X server will build, install this file anymore, and XFT1 is dead , god bless 
it .

Some distributors (as debian) think xlib is ok and provide only this one !

I ask the debian maintenair to move to nfont+backart 
nfont is really good but without a compatibility or transitional period it s a 
real pain for maintenairs
