Okay, but it will have to change again soon. (That's what happens when you
try to make X policy in lieu of the X maintainer.)
I'm preparing 4.0.2-11 now, and it will include a new command,
update-fonts-dir.
I'd like to test various font packages with that, and then if everything
works out okay, issue a policy revision that asks font packages to depend
on xutils (>> 4.0.3), since I'll be putting out 4.0.3-1 (or -0pre1v1)
shortly after 4.0.2-11.
I appreciate your input on this issue but not your way of going about it.
Instead of filing a lot of critical(!) bugs, you should have brought it up
on debian-policy.
