Package: xfonts-base
Version: 6.8.99.900.dfsg.1-0pre1
Severity: minor
Hi,
currently it's difficult for someone with little knowledge of the Debian
package pool to find out what package is missing if an X server reports
"unable to open default font 'fixed'". It would be great if apt-cache search
could be used to discover xfonts-base.
The paragraph
If you are not using a remote font server, you must install this package if
you are installing an X server. It contains fonts without which X servers
will not work.
could be rephrased to read
If you are not using a remote font server, you must install this package if
you are installing an X server. It contains fonts such as 'fixed' without
which X servers will not work.
