Says which doc? None AFAICT. Does conf.d/README talk about debconf at all? Hell no. > The fontconfig-config.config script checks for the presence of these > symlinks and interprets them according to the meaning of their file > name. So the presence of the symlink called "70-no-bitmaps.conf" - > regardless of the name or content of the file it points to - > suggests fontconfig that you do not want bitmap fonts enabled. > > I think this is reasonable behaviour.

I started with a removal of the symlink. That change (too) was lost by the upgrade process. This is a RC bug. Mraw, KiBi.
