Hi, I have installed the package fttools and removed the directories in
/usr/share/fonts and /usr/local/share/fonts and now am simply working
from a ~/.fonts to keep things from getting confusing.
I downloaded two other fonts from the same site to make sure it wasnt a
problem specific to that font.

I then did mkttfdir -ejwo .fonts
and then sudo fc-cache -fv
fc-cache created ~/.fonts/fonts.cache-1
and outputted fc-cache: "/home/orchid/.fonts": caching, 4 fonts, 0 dirs
which seems right as I have 4 fonts now.
the fonts.cache-1 file itself contains four entries similar to:
"PixelCarnageMono.ttf" 0"PixelCarnageMonoTT:style=Regular:slant=0:weight=80:wid
th=100:spacing=100:foundry=unknown:index=0:outline=True:scalable=True:charset= |

smj|so|sq|sv|sw|tn|ts|vo|wa|xh|yap|zu:fontversion=65536:fontformat=TrueType"
But xlsfonts still show no fonts from my ~/.fonts folder.
I am trying to use the fonts in urxvt and in emacs if that matters. What
is frustrating is that on the previous Sid install, I had installed
these fonts wihout a problem and forgotten to document how I did it :)
