To make it easier to keep 'the temporary font' approach in 24.04 — if
that is what we want by then — I added a hard dependency on fonts-
dejavu-core to desktop-common. No upstream changes to the DejaVu fonts
have been made the last 6 years, so it's more or less unmaintained,
which in this context is an advantage.

Bug description:
I was upgrading from Lunar to Mantic the other day and left a couple
of applications open during the upgrade process. During the upgrade
the text in audacious became unreadable (I'll attach a screenshot) and
I seem to recall the title bar of Firefox being unreadable but the
contents of web pages still being readable.
