I guess x-ttcidfont-conf no longer works, it used to put symlinks of every installed font into /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType
I don't know how to solve this, there must be a way that Gem can search for font files in a proper Debian/Ubuntu/etc way.
Gem uses Pd's open_canvas() to find fonts. simply add /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType or whatever to your "-path".
also, when compiling Gem you can specify a default font (with full path).
also, as user you can override the default font in your gem.conf.
finally, adding font-search mechanisms to Gem is very low on the priority list.
