are unstable xfonts packages still broken?

[Pollywog <croak@shadypond.com>]

Every time I install the xfonts-75dpi and xfonts-100dpi packages, I lose 
fonts in Gnome, and all I see are dots where characters should be.

I am using xfs, and this is in my /etc/X11/XF86Config:



Section "Files"
   FontPath   "unix/:7100
   FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
EndSection


I am using xserver_svga because xserver_xfree86  does not run very well on 
this machine.


I am running Debian "unstable".


Are the xfonts package broken or am I doing something wrong?



thanks
