|

| 8 | in the configuration, create a new file, <filename>/etc/fonts/local.conf</filename> with your local
|

|
|---|
| 30 | and unless it is explictly disabled when building XFree86, the internal
|

| 31 | version is created leaving two slightly incompatible libraries on your system.
|

| 32 | It is recommended that you only install one version.</para></note>
