(emacs:x): Pango-WARNING **: failed to find shape engine, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc',?

When firing up emacs, I get:

(emacs:21169): Pango-CRITICAL **: No fonts found:

This probably means that the fontconfig

library is not correctly configured. You may need to

edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information

about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual

page and on http://fontconfig.org/

(emacs:21169): Pango-WARNING **: failed to find shape engine, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc', script='latin'

To fix, I simply installed: urw-fonts

yum -y install urw-fonts

This fixed my problem on Fedora Core 10 installs on x86 and vmware x86 images.
