Bug#239278: xserver-xfree86: Missing dependency on cursor package?



Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0-5
Severity: normal
Tags: sid

After upgrading XFree86 from 4.2 to 4.3.0-5, I was unable to start X11; it exited
with the following error: "could not open default font 'cursor'". A quick google
and I found someone who had solved this problem by reinstalling artwiz-cursor. I
didn't have that installed already, but installing it fixed my problem (and I got
a cool cursor). I imagine I could have used a different cursor package. Is this
a missing dependency?
