No fonts found : fontconfig

Using Redhat-based distribution for SSH remote display, can lead to such errors :

No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual
page and on http://fontconfig.org

 

The fix is pretty simple :

$ yum install dejavu-fonts
