I am using x-list-fonts function in my config on emacs master branch. When I try starting the emacs daemon from the terminal as "emacs --daemon --debug-init" I get the following stack trace:


```

Important to note that when starting emacs normally, as "emacs" from the terminal, it starts fine.

Just to confirm, what works is running "emacs" from terminal, and what
doesn't work is "emacs --daemon --debug-init", correct?

Can you try "emacs --fg-daemon --debug-init" and see if that makes a
difference?

Yup, you got it right.

I tried it, and got the same error.

Can you try to reproduce from "emacs -Q"?  Or, in other words, try to
eliminate parts of your init.el that do not contribute to the issue you
are seeing?

This is the expected behavior in a daemon session of Emacs: the daemon
doesn't initialize the window-system (i.e. the GUI aspects of Emacs)
until the first GUI frame is created.

So if you want this initialization to work in daemon sessions, what
you need is to move it to server-after-make-frame-hook.

Thanks, so I'm closing this bug.
