Bug#362312: junk left in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts after upgrade
Package: xfonts-utils
Version: 1:1.0.0-3
Severity: normal
With the fonts dirs moving, a system that is upgraded from an old
version of X will have /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts directories left hanging
around with fonts.dir, fonts.cache-1, fonts.alias, and encodings.dir
left in them. Since these old directories are presumably not used, I
think that this package (or some package) should delete that cruft from
them and rmdir -p --ignore-fail-no-non-empty the directories.
(Also, does anything take care of removing these same files from the new
location if all of X is purged off a system? Something should.)
