     Thank you, Michael, and thank you, Doc, for your input.
     I just downloaded the source RPM and looked at the spec file.
The only GUI-related package it requires is "qt >= 4.6".  So it
appears the developer didn't even think about the fonts.
     Again, not being up on development guidelines -- especially GUI
development guidelines, I wonder if the requirements weren't what I
listed before:

adwaita-gtk2-theme
dejavu-fonts-common
dejavu-sans-fonts
dejavu-sans-mono-fonts
dejavu-serif-fonts

...but rather just *some* gtk2-theme (could I have used
bluebird-gtk2-theme?) and whatever fonts `go` with it.  I cannot
remember, now.  I'll have to go back and investigate this again.
     I'll let the list know.  Thanks again!
