This hasn't been true since the last update to msttcorefonts. Now the
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType dir doesn't contain any font files,
but it keeps the fonts.scale and .dri files, which maybe is a bug (since
there are fonts defined which don't actually exist).

At least this is what I see here on my machine.

The font files are now in /var/lib/defoma/blabla... And I think this is
the new standard location for font packages to put TrueType fonts into,
packages that integrate with defoma that is.
