Package: t1-oldslavic
Version: 4.12+nmu2
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

/etc/defoma/hints/t1-oldslavic.hints tells the rest of Debian to
look for the installed font in /usr/share/fonts/type1/oldslavic/,
but it is actually installed in /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/ like
most other type 1 fonts.

Because Debian packages are supposed to believe defoma when
looking for fonts, policy compliant packages will not be able to
use the package at all until this is fixed.

I have attached a simplistic patch for the broken hints file.
