Bug#284844: konsole: Missing Font "Linux"

Thank you for the info, I understood this the first time :-)
OK, I start to repeat myself heavily, but: I dont want konsole to be dependent
on xfonts-konsole. Honestly, I just dont care how you fix this. I just want
an (almost) bugfree default Debian installation. I proposed to have
xfonts-konsole to be included in the default set of installed packages when
you do a vanilla Debian desktop installation. Therefore I must file a bug
report for the installation team. Please tell me which package in the Debain
BTS is the correct one for this report. I dont know because there is at
least:
- install
- installation
- installation-reports

Some statements in the fontconfig bugreports ("...broken applications, like
KDE, ...") look like a little inhouse fight. Very sad. This are my first
serious steps with Debian and I hoped that it could be a little bit better
than those "other" distributions I want to migrate from...
