If you want to revert to that, I am fine with it. I never could get
that helmet.ttf font working, that's why I switched it to Bitstream
Vera. Since GNOME used that font as its default, it would be the most
likely font to be already installed.

I did make a change there in the past, but I am currently maintaining
too many things, I can't keep up. Therefore I need to drop some
things. I figured you are already maintaining pidip, so you might be
able to take this on. I can easily revert my changes, but that will
also just leave things in a non-working state.
I agree with you, I think the best bet would be to use a font that's
installed on all GNU/Linux systems. I believe DejaVu is such a font,
since its the default font for GNOME, among other things.
