After making this change I get the following warning when starting xpdf
in an xterm window:

QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to
'/tmp/runtime-kbrown'

I googled the message, but none of the solutions appeared to apply.  Do
you know how to suppress this warning?  I assume it results from the
fact that I'm not working in a desktop environment.

I don't see how adding a desktop menu entry would cause this; are you
sure it wasn't happening before?  Or maybe the Qt 5.9.2 update caused
it?  Either way, this isn't an xpdf specific issue, and would have to be
fixed or worked around elsewhere.

You're right. Moving the desktop entry out of the way doesn't make any difference. It's just coincidence that I first noticed it after making that change.

In the meantime, I have another xpdf problem. After my update of the ghostscript fonts, I get the following errors when starting xpdf:

Config Error: No display font for 'Courier'
Config Error: No display font for 'Courier-Bold'
Config Error: No display font for 'Courier-BoldOblique'
Config Error: No display font for 'Courier-Oblique'
Config Error: No display font for 'Helvetica'
Config Error: No display font for 'Helvetica-Bold'
Config Error: No display font for 'Helvetica-BoldOblique'
Config Error: No display font for 'Helvetica-Oblique'
Config Error: No display font for 'Symbol'
Config Error: No display font for 'Times-Bold'
Config Error: No display font for 'Times-BoldItalic'
Config Error: No display font for 'Times-Italic'
Config Error: No display font for 'Times-Roman'
Config Error: No display font for 'ZapfDingbats'

Reinstalling the old ghostscript-fonts-std-8.11-1 fixes it. Copying the files from /usr/share/fonts/urw-base35 to /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts doesn't fix it.

Do you happen to know how Fedora handles this? I didn't see anything obvious in xpdf.spec.
