Sawfish config help


Hi, I compiled sawfish-1.8.1 from scratch using make command, and encountered an error message:

Code:
error--> (error "unknown font" "Sans")
It seems that this error is caused by misconfiguration in run-time.
I have all the packages it needs with the correct version and the compilation ran well.
Can anyone help me with it? Thank you in advance

Check if the font is installed! Or maybe it is misspelled in the config ? "sans" not "Sans"

Regards
