[solved] strange fonts and no terminal after update

i recently updated the following packages:

dina-font
mesa
mesa-libgl
intel-dri
libsm
libx11
libxmu
libxpm
libxaw
libxrandr
libxv
sqlite
xorg-xrdb

after rebooting, urxvt no longer loads, and i3wm does not appear to be using dina-font, even though i made no changes to ~/.Xresources, ~/.xinitrc, ~/.i3/config, etc.

i've tried reinstalling dina-font, but that didn't work. did i miss something?

thanks.

Re: [solved] strange fonts and no terminal after update

Did you update the system? Or did you just update those packages?

What does the journal/log(s) show?

Re: [solved] strange fonts and no terminal after update

fixed it.

i had

-*-dina-medium-r-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

before. changing it to

-*-dina-medium-r-*-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

fixed the issue. strange that it worked before.
