Package: gnustep-back-common
Version: 0.26.2-4
Severity: important
User: debian-hurd at lists.debian.org
Usertags: hurd-i386

I noticed that gnumail and adun.app have been given back a few hundred
times because gnustep-back-common's postinst fails on GNU/Hurd.  I would
appreciate if you investigate and see what's going wrong, is it mknfonts
that fails or something else?

The relevant snippet is:

FONTSDIR=/var/lib/GNUstep/Fonts
...
	echo -n "Generating GNUstep nfont descriptions..."
	if [ -d $FONTSDIR ]; then
	  rm -rf $FONTSDIR/*
	else
	  mkdir -p $FONTSDIR
	fi
	cd $FONTSDIR; \
	  mknfonts $(fc-list : file | grep -v '\.gz' | cut -d: -f1) \
	  2>/var/log/gnustep-back-common.log \
	    || (echo " failed, see /var/log/gnustep-back-common.log."; exit 1)

Hopefully, /var/log/gnustep-back-common.log should give some clue.
