Package: freefont
Version: 0.10-8
freefont only adds the new FontPath to /etc/X11/XF86Config
but not to /etc/X11/xfs/config.
IMHO decision where to add the new fontpath should run like this
-------------
if (/etc/X11/xfs/config exists) {
add new font to /etc/X11/xfs/config unless it's already there.
}
#nice for people who removed xfs and reinstall it later
if (xfs is installed) {
if (XF86Config does NOT use fontserver) {
output warning about this;
ask user if he wants the new font path added to XF86Config or \
rather 'Fontpath "tcp/localhost:7100"' to make use of the xfs;
add Fontpath according to the users wish;
reload xfs;
}else{
output that freefont will be available via the xfs and was\
therefore not added to XF86Config;
reload xfs;
}
}else{
add Fontpath to XF86Config;
}
------------
I'm not sure if problems arise when xfs and freefont are installed in one
run. The xfs preinst and postinst renames its config file. Maybe the changes
freefont does could get wiped out by this.

freefont is orphaned, and I closed these bugs in a QA upload recently.
Due to bug #71600 in dinstall, they were only tagged as fixed, so I'm
closing them by hand.

Description:
freefont - Freeware font selection for X11
Closes: 5511 10950 29570 36777 86078 91458
Changes:
freefont (0.10-9) unstable; urgency=low
.
* The maintainer has orphaned this package (see bug #90925); set
maintainer to Debian QA Group.
* Section: non-free -> non-free/x11.
* Update policy version to 3.5.2:
- FHS updates (closes: #91458).
- Build dependencies.
- New X font policy. This includes moving these fonts to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 so that the X Window System should pick
them up by default, shipping fonts.scale instead of fonts.dir and
calling appropriate font utilities, and updating dependencies
(closes: #5511, #10950, #29570, #36777, #86078).
- Converted to debhelper so I get dh_installxfonts, among other things.
* Removed spurious debian/substvars file.
