This bug is unfixable without an addition to dpkg's feature set, which
wouldn't do any good for xft versions 2.1.2-[12345] anyway, all of which
have long since expired from Debian testing and unstable.
For details on why I can't fix this bug, please see:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=3D237509&msg=3D44
Closing this bug (and the many duplicate reports merged with it).
