Bug#240674: xfonts-scalable: postinst error: cannot load default config file

[Frans Pop <aragorn@tiscali.nl>]

Package: xfonts-scalable
Version: 4.3.0-7
Severity: normal

During installation the following error was shown:
Setting up xfonts-scalable (4.3.0-7) ...
fontconfig error: cannot load default config file
fontconfig error: cannot load default config file

This was during X Window System and KDE installation after a debian-installer test.
All other xfont files installed without problems.

The error is not shown if I now do 'apt-get install --reinstall xfonts-scalable'
