Public bug reported:

BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/";
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 16.04 LTS"
VERSION="16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)"

Package: cups-filters
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com>
Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug
Architecture: i386
Version: 1.0.52-0ubuntu1.7
Supported: 5y

This package installs the file 99pdftoopvp.conf to /etc/fonts/conf.d

/etc/fonts/conf.d/99pdftoopvp.conf

However the directory conf.d is intended to be a directoy containing
only the file README and symbolic links to "activated" configuration
files in the directory /etc/fonts/conf.avail.

Installing 99pdftoopvp.conf directly into conf.d makes a mockery of this
Debian+Ubuntu standard convention for multiple configuration files.

Therefore installation of the package should result in 99pdftoopvp.conf
being installed into /etc/fonts/conf.avail and a symbolic link created
from /etc/conf.d/99pdftoopvp.conf to /etc/conf.avail/99pdftoopvp.conf,
viz

0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 2010-04-17 18:46 99pdftoopvp.conf ->
../conf.avail/99pdftoopvp.conf
