The xfonts-konsole package no longer exists in the testing or unstable 
archives. KDE 3.5 changed how konsole provides its bitmap fonts - they 
are more or less deprecated, but there is still a way to use them.

If you're a konsole 3.5.x user and wish to continue to use the bitmap 
fonts formerly supplied in the xfonts-konsole package, then fire up 
konsole, and go to Settings --> Font --> Install Bitmap. Then restart 
KDE and configure konsole to use the desired font. Note that the bitmap 
fonts will only be available for the user who ran the above commands, 
since they are installed to "$HOME/.fonts".

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Christopher Martin
