but the msttcorefonts package (which is probably what most people use)
installs all the TrueType fonts into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType
(as symlinks from /usr/share/fonts/truetype).

/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType is _emty_ . Which
fonts are ment to live there? 

What is the advantage of using the latter one?

Thanks
