$ cat /usr/share/doc/xfs/README.Debian
Debian README for xfs package
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

Newcomers to the X Window System should first read the Debian X FAQ
(Frequently Asked Questions list): /usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/FAQ.gz.
You can view this file with your favorite pager program after decompressing
it. For example:
$ zcat /usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/FAQ.gz | pager
Upgraders from Debian GNU/Linux 2.0 or earlier should be aware that the
/etc/X11/config file is no longer used; its xfs-specific options are now in
/etc/X11/fs/xfs.options.
The default font catalogue for xfs as shipped with Debian GNU/Linux
searches the "misc" font directory before searching "cyrillic". Some fonts
in both of these directories claim the same font alias names (like
"fixed"). Therefore, the X font server will use whichever font it finds
first with that alias. To preferentially use Cyrillic fonts instead of the
Latin ones in misc, simply switch the order in which the paths appear in
the xfs font catalogue, defined in /etc/X11/fs/config.
Also, be aware that, as of xfs 3.3.3.1-3, the default xfs configuration has
TCP port listening disabled for security reasons. If you have xfs serving
fonts to remote hosts via TCP, you will need to re-enable TCP connections;
you can do this by simply commenting out the "no-listen =3D tcp" line in
/etc/X11/fs/config.
To use xfs you must add it to the X server's FontPath, in the "Files" secti=
on
of your XF86Config (or XF86Config-4).
Section "Files"
FontPath "unix/:7100"
EndSection
For information on the /etc/X11/fs/config file, see the xfs(1)
manual page.

Closing as due to user confusion.
(Please don't ask me to make a debconf note about this. I used to do this,
and was informed by the debconf author that doing so was "debconf abuse".)
