Thank you for your response, Tobi.

I need to learn how to use SourceForge. Did you go to 
http://sourceforge.net/p/gambas/code/HEAD/tree/ and then click "Browse 
Commits"? Is there a way to search them?

In browsing the commits, I found [r6390]: "* NEW: The default font is 
now embedded in the library."

I think that means I can safely remove the references to that external 
font in the SPEC file. I will try that.

Thanks again.
