jvm2008 fonts problem?

[Volker Simonis]

It was indeed the fontconfig which was missing on that host.
I had to install:

ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc/expat/expat-2.0.1-2.aix5.3.ppc.rpm
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc/fontconfig/fontconfig-2.4.2-1.aix5.2.ppc.rpm

from AIX Toolbox for Linux
Applications<http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/aix/linux/toolbox/alpha.html>to
fix the problem.

Regards,
Volker
