WindowMaker bad default values


Hi,

I've just installed WindowMaker for the first time and ran into difficulties
with the default Font settings.

This is the script I've used to start X.
$ diff `which startxwin.sh` startxwmaker.sh
101c101
< XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error &
---
> XWin -clipboard -silent-dup-error &
116c116
< # twm &
---
> wmaker &

When I run the script this is what I received:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

By changing Wmaker to twm it started up fine, and checked the installed
fonts.
WindowMakers default fonts were not listed.
I then installed the xorg-x11-fscl package, which then fixed the issue.
Running the script started up WindowMaker just fine.
Running xlsfonts shows that only the Luxi Sans fonts are installed not the
Trebuchet MS fonts.

I don't know if it is easier to update what the default fonts are going to
be for WindowMaker
( i.e. what is in the GNUstep/Defaults/WMGLOBAL after invoking wmaker.inst )
or making WindowMaker dependant on xorg-x11-fscl.  

It would be nice if either of these things happened so that WindowMaker
works out of the box.

Thanks,
Frodak
