Bug#363005: xfonts-utils: update-fonts-{dir,alias} -7 should be the default
Package: xfonts-utils
Version: 1:1.0.0-3
Severity: normal
Now that the X.Org 7 transition has happened, -7 mode for update-fonts-dir
and update-fonts-alias should really be the default. The default now is
to still look in the old /usr/lib/X11/fonts directory and hash it, which
means that packages that update to the new paths but don't explicitly
pass -7 to update-fonts-dir and update-fonts-alias in postinst will lose.
