1. As a constant user of portupgrade since ages, this time, before and after the xorg-upgrade procedure, I have carelessly omitted the `-R' option. No wonder that required packages were missing. 2. The `pkg_info -L' check does not certify that the file is actually in its place: between two checks I have removed all the empty fontfiles in misc/, thereby getting rid again of fonts.alias as well :-( and forgot about it. Now I know that the server is indeed looking first for the `fixed' line in fonts.alias. If he does not find it, he complains no matter how many fixed fonts are stored in misc/. The fact that misc/ and three other directories in that machine were only populated with a large number of empty fontfiles remains weird though. Thanks again for every reply, on-list and off-list.
