I haven't used xfig since updating from Fedora-10 to Fedora-11,

Warning: Cannot convert string "6x13" to type FontStruct

Google tells me that Debian people found this results from a missing
"gsfonts-X11" package, but Fedora has no such package.
What am I missing?
What do you have to do to see the errors? I just started xfig from the
menu on my F11.x86_64 laptop, and it starts and shows me a blank
workspace. When I start it from the command line, I see no messages.
