I've uploaded latex-xft-fonts to incoming. The first upload was rejected
by James Troup for license reasons.
See http://people.debian.org/~dexter/latex-xft-fonts/ for latest version.

Big THANK YOU! I will apply your changes and BTS clean up, surely.

I've done some minor tweaks with dependencies. I'm using CVS as helper for
maintaining my packages. See
http://cvsdebuild.alioth.debian.org/horde/chora/cvs.php/cvsdebuild/debian/dists/lyx/debian/packages
for changes.
In fact, I'm waiting for ftpmaster and uploading latex-xft-fonts into
distribution...
