[Radiance-general] FAQ - Known problems

[Guglielmetti, Robert]

Hi Aksel, nice to see you on this list! How did you acquire the Radiance
source code? Did you just grab the HEAD? If so, you need to grab the
"auxiliary files" archive from the same place you got the HEAD:

http://www.radiance-online.org/download-install/download-radiance/un-offici
al-head-version/index.html

I'm pretty sure that's where helvet.fnt lives. You can also use the CMake
build system. There was a thread on the dev list recently:
