Package: fontconfig-config
Version: 2.4.2-1
Severity: minor

The dependency of fontconfig-config defines ttf-dejavu as the first
alternative font (ttf-bitstream is the second). I guess this makes
DejaVu the default font family in new Debian installations.
fontconfig-config's first debconf question speaks about Bitstream Vera
being the default which may be confusing because not everybody know that
they are based on the same glyphs.

By the way, in my opinion it would be better to disable bitmap fonts by
default.
